Has Gary Lockwood ever played a character who didn't think he was a demigod? The script is full of nonsense. Ann Margret who is usually a stunning person comes off very guttural. Anthony Quinn's character is stale. Of course watching a liberal professor have to deal with the real-life consequences of his lectures would be a fascinating concept, but the film came at it from the wrong angle and the possible paradox was not explored well. I can say the film exposed the student movement for the ludicrous, hypocritical abuse that it was. Sadly the point was not driven home because I'm sure that wasn't the message the studio was trying to convey. As it came off it was very tepid, and undecided. Full of stale ideals that even in their day were not widely accepted. The characters were far from empathetic and with such a cast I would have thought that impossible.
