The Luddite Reader's "Top 12 Most Luddite Films of All Time"What is the most luddite film of all time? The top 12? Maybe these questions have never come up, but here are the answers anyway. The most luddite film of all time is Godard’s Alphaville (1965), the only film in which the central character actually says, “Technology, hah! Keep it!” Alphaville also features the most luddite character name of all time: Lemmy Caution, a comic-bookish detective played by the durable, somewhat eroded Eddie Constantine.
