Thread Name: Manfred Mann's birthday (21 October 1940)
Subject: RE: Manfred Mann's birthday (21 October 1940)
OK, so I went Googling ...
- but sounds like it's still film for our times, LOL!
" Film Description Privilege, the 1967 Peter Watkins English musical counter-culture rebellion melodrama ("He entertained..captivated..then betrayed! He had the power of priviledge!"; "The raw, shocking movie of a pop singer who makes it big!"; about a pop singer who uses his popularity to combat the government's attempt to coerce the population into conformity) starring Paul Jones (part of the rock 'n' roll group Manfred Mann), Jean Shrimpton, William Job, Mark London, and Jeremy Child"
- no wonder I'd never heard of it - probably didn't make it to isolated, conservative, West Aussie ... :~) I'd like to see it now though ...
