wild in the streets (1968)

"You're part of that alcoholic generation dad, you need to drink."
Max Frost (Christopher Jones), a young rock star, endorses a politicians (Hal Holbrook), campaign to become a senator. But it gets him thinking, and he comes out campaigning for the voting age to be reduced to 14, and with the youth of the nation on his side he wins. But that's just the start...
A film attempting to put fear into the nation of old people, as it proposes that the young will one day not inherit the earth, but sneakily take it for themselves. See as a double bill with 1967's Privilege for another version to the pop star as political activist.
