    The bullfights find another form of significance in their paralleling of events in the characters’ lives. For instance, the first time they see the bulls as they are being unloaded into the corrals the first bull gores and kills a steer. This could be seen as parallel to the ensuing fight Mike and Cohn have. Mike himself compares Cohn to a steer—a castrated bull calf that grows into an ox—which fits on more than one level. Cohn is already an outsider to the group simply by being Jewish, as the low current of anti-Semitism runs through the novel attest too.…

    The film records the initial public hearing for Running Fence, where locals mocked the piece by saying things like, “I know art… and this is not art!” Or by holding up a hanky and mockingly alluding to the fact that their hanky was a piece of art because they said so. This came to seem like a personal attack on Christo and Jeanne-Claude, as alluded to by a moment shared between the two artists and one of the local ranchers.

When speaking to the artists, he stated something along the lines of this: “the reason your piece is not being approved is not because of the piece.”…
