Languid look at a frenetic time falls short..., 7 September 2009
Author: rixrex from United States

This is a soporific display of the early anti-war (Vietnam) protest movement and roots of the middle-class youth hippie culture. There's some minimal trumpeting of the civil rights movement, but not much.

As such, it's almost sleep-inducing and lacking in character. There's nice scenery and some decent performances, good music and idealistic sentiment, but unfortunately all caught up in truly stereotypical characters, especially the high school staff, and plenty of maudlin, routine behavior. And done in a manner that lacks the same intensity of the period, a period on the verge of the breakdown of family due to social and political upheaval, large-scale demonstrations, violence-imbued war coverage on the TV news that spilled over into society in general.

It would have been more appropriate had Sunshine left in a VW van of Manson cult members rather than ordinary hippies, albeit more cynical.
