High School (1968)

I was in Central High in Philly during this period, and watching this film brought back my feelings of that time in school. Although what was going on at Northeast then now, among other things looks sexist and autocratic, it was way more “progressive” than my school. We’ve got some way to go, but maybe we shouldn’t be so negative about how society is now, because as the old sexist cigarette ad stated: “You’ve come a long way, baby.”

lol—the funniest part is, our dads and grandads back then griped about almost exactly the same things they grumble about today. “What’s this world comin’ to? Those damned (expletives) are takin’ over. Ruining society!”
