Rico,Yes, the apes' discovery of technology was very srong without dialog or voice over. I have often thought about "2001" that the people were made purposely grey and lifeless- kind of appendages to the technology. Remember the cold, perfunctory birthday phone call between Discovery and his parents? In some ways I though that aspect was brilliant- the sublimation of the people to the machines- all the focus on brand names and how the shuttle galley works, the 'gravity' shoes, and etc are more focussed on than the characters who have no real personality.
And many, many thanks for mentioning "Love and Death". You are the prize winner here today- I'm sure you're correct.
