It's actually a horrifying concept, to be forced into an LSD trip all day every day.

Well, it's pretty unrealistic. LSD and its analogues have a bizarre pharmacological property: every day of continuous use the effective dose doubles. Somewhere in the range of day 10 to 20 it doesn't work at all. Unlike opiates you can't OD on it, so it essentially becomes inert. This is because LSD works by signalling the brain to release a cascade of endogenous neurotransmitters. Eventually its reserve runs out and there's nothing left to dump. You have to take a few days off for it to work again, and the cooldown period is proportional to the time you spent high. These incarcerated boomers would all sober up eventually. And then watch out, hippies!

@@Blyledge funny since natural DMT in Fescue Grass is shown to cause damage to cattle serotonin receptors. There is a tolerance built up but also toxic side effects. some research indicates LSD causes brain cancer. I've known two people who did lots of LSD and both got brain cancer - what are the odds?

Gotta love Shelley Winter's line: "I'm Aryan! I'm Aryan! I mean.....I'm young! I'm young!" lol Saw this on tv when i was nine. When I saw Hal Holbrook hanging from the tree, I was like "ok, my fucking mind is scarred forever'

Well as long as the camps' surroundings are going to be groovy, it sounds just fine to me. Plus you get to wear those cool purple robes. Of course, you wouldn't want to be in the same camp as Shelley Winters.

@murderd2death All three. This was an exploitation film masquerading as a political parable. It appealed to prurient tastes in both older conservatives and young people who identified with the counterculture. Since the writing isn't that bright the conflicting ideologies weren't reconciled and the film is full of cognitive dissonance. The KZfaq clip "Yippie utopia" depicts exactly the opposite. But the cuts from this and that were intermingled in the actual film. It's kind of dizzying.

An epic for American-International, a teen-exploitation movie that turned out to be a smart satire; and what a cast. Great songs too.

I’ve watched this movie before. This scene is infamous. But, I just noticed-as Shelley Winters is being dragged from her home, she is alternating protests from “I’m young, I’m young.” interspersed with “I’m Aryan, I’m Aryan.” - rather shocking…

Christopher Jones (who played Max Frost) was a real up-and coming actor in the late 60's. Starring in such A-list films as "The Looking Glass War" and "Ryan's Daughter". Unfortunately, he got into drugs and his career declined rapidly. In a documentary about Jones, one person recalled that he would show up at Shelly Winter's home. Looking in the windows. Giving Shelly a major freak-out.
