Ticklish Business 217. Hair (1979 with Alex Steed) - Films of Resistance Series
It's the age of Aquarius!
Viva la resistance! Over the next four episodes we'll be looking at how Old Hollywood talks about politics, independence and democracy and we're looking at the end of the 1970s with this counterculture musical.
Hair shook up Broadway but how did it come off in the movies? Special guest Alex Steed joins Emily to discuss hippiedom and more.
