Like your wife, I thought it was an absolutely brilliant film when I was an enlightened college kid who had just discovered LSD. I watched it again last year and could barely get through it.
The philosophical ideas presented have no consistency or relevance to whatever passes for a plot, the pacing/narrative is an afterthought, and (sorry to any Linklater fans) the rotoscoping animation started to give me a migraine.

Shouldn’t there be a bigger focus on getting misinformation out of the media rather than giving all opposing viewpoints equal airtime? IMO, the reason why a good chunk of the US believes in wacky fringe theories and has no faith in traditional scientific institutions is that our media tends to present, for example, RFK and Anthony Fauci as equivalent authorities on vaccines.
Making or allowing demonstrably false statements to be made on air should be sanctioned as a matter of public policy.
