Movie Reviews of Flashing on the Sixties a Tribal Document
Movie Review: A look back on much of what was right about the sixties
Summary: 5 Stars
On occasion, conservative commentators utter negative comments about the sixties in America, at times they seem to think that it is the root of most of what is wrong with the United States at any given time. While there were some bad things, most notably the drug use, many good things came out of that decade. One of the most positive legacies of that and any other decade was the civil rights movement. Many of the elderly black people that voted for Barack Obama in the 2008 presidential election were not allowed to vote before the sixties and faced daily discrimination and segregation.
The sixties were also the time when the environmental movement was born and the beginning of the movement for equal rights for women. It is difficult for the modern young woman to fathom the fact that in the sixties, a significant number of career paths were unavailable to women. Many if not most of the major universities did not allow women into most of their graduate programs and when a working woman got pregnant, she was routinely released from her job.
This tape is a look back at that decade, with interviews of celebrities such as Graham Nash, David Crosby, Peter Fonda, Michelle Phillips and Dennis Hopper. The background music is also out of the sixties and there is video of communes, bus races, concerts in Golden Gate Park and of course the highest point, the rock concert at Woodstock. This tape has received many awards and for good reason. For despite the obvious problems of the times, the sixties was a time when a lot of good things were done or at least begun.
