"If you're going to San Francisco Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair If you're going to San Francisco You're gonna meet some gentle people there."

Written by John Phillips of The Mamas & the Papas.

Summer of Love (produced 23 Apr. 2007) part of the American Experience series (Season 19, Episode 12) is an excellent documentary that incorporates statements and information from the people that were there at the time (summer 1967.)

Even though there were a plethora of interviews the one that stands out from the rest is the interview/overview by Peter Coyote. The actual narrator is David Ogden Stiers.

There is some good footage and many who read this review will be looking to see if they are there. We get a synopsis of the good, the bad, and the ugly.

I personally was in Viet Nam at the time and did not have time to follow the news. (Volunteered and extended.)

In the end, you will realize that this is not about that summer but the beginning of an attitude adjustment that is now part of our mainstream consciousness.

German cinema is famous for its historical depth, expressionist aesthetics, and social-political engagement. It has moved from Expressionism to political reckoning, from New German Cinema's raw realism to contemporary genre experiments. Its legacy lies in both technical innovation and deep explorations of history, morality, and philosophy.

The documentary is a form of non-fiction storytelling that aims to present factual information, insights, and perspectives on real-world subjects, events, issues, or people. Documentaries can cover a wide range of topics, including history, science, culture, social issues, nature, biographies, and more.
