Slaughterhouse Five is mainstream. The bloody book has been on English Lit syllabi almost since it was written and the film has been doing the rounds for 30 years.
It won the Jury Prize at Cannes and was nominated for the Palme d'Or and it won a Golden Globe. It was an adaptation of a best selling novel and got a full theatrical release by Universal. What aspect of mainstream am I missing here?
