Anecdotes
This film was meant to perform the same function in relation to the earlier and similar film The Trip (1967). Jack Nicholson had written a script that director Richard Rush thought was too "experimental" for mainstream cinema, so the concept of a 'youth" film based in San Francisco and dealing with flower power and drugs was taken over by other writers. Nicholson eventually did not receive any screen credit for his work, although he took what was essentially the male lead role in the film; however, he did get to write the part of Stoney into it for himself as part of the package.

Gaffes
During the performance of The Strawberry Alarm Clock's song "Rainy Day Mushroom Pillow" in the film, the appearance of the lead guitarist's guitar changes halfway through it.

Versions alternatives
The film was unreleased in the UK until 1972, after the junkyard fight between the thugs and the hippies was heavily cut at the behest of the BBFC. All later UK home video releases present the scene completely uncut.

Fun look back

Dick Clark produced this film and I think the problem is it's not edgy enough as far as the drug taking and being hippies. Jack Nicholson seems to just act like a hippie while he really just wants to get laid and play in his band. The real locations of Haight-Ashbury in San Francisco are terrific as you really get to see what that part of the city looked like. In some scenes the onlookers across the street are looking at the camera and waving. Dean Stockwell lives in a box on a roof and spouts all sort of hippie lingo and tries to get laid. Henry Jaglom and Garry Marshall show up in small roles. Bruce Dern as The Seeker is rather confusing. I guess he's just a drug addict and the end of the film has me thinking that Dick Clark wanted to make an anti-drug film after all. Susan Strasberg was always excellent and even in a silly film like this she stands out. Nicholson's hands don't move when he's playing the guitar! Groovy!
