| Barbarella was a futuristic astronaut on a mission to retrieve the evil scientist Durand-Durand (namesake of the similarly named New Wave band, Duran Duran). I've seen claims that the film was set in 40,000, and that it was set in the 41st Century (which would be 4,001 through 4,100). Not sure which is correct, but given the nature of the film, it's possible that both were used! |
