Shot in 1968, one year after the Summer of Love, LAST SUMMER WON'T HAPPEN is a critical yet sympathetic examination of the anti-war movement in New York City. The film traces the development group of activists on the Lower East Side. We see their growth from isolated, alienated individuaIs to a politically empowered community.
Filmed between the protests at the Pentagon and the demonstrations at the Democratic Convention in Chicago, it incIudes portraits of Abbie Hoffman, editor PauI Krassner, folksinger Phil Ochs and anarchist Tom Osha Neumann.
Bonus fiIm: TlME OF THE LOCUST by Peter Gessner (1966, 13 min.) CompiIed from American news film, Vietnamese NationaI Liberation Front combat footage, and unreIeased material filmed by Japanese Television camera units, this by-now cIassic film provides one of the strongest treatises against the war in Vietnam. |
