Hair

From the opening strains of the "Aquarius" anthem, director Milos Forman's (Amadeus) film adaptation of Hair proves that it is not only a masterful interpretation of the 1968 Broadway musical sensation, but that it is pure cinematic entertainment. Based on the Gerome Ragni, James Rado and Galt MacDermot stage musical, Hair stars John Savage (The Deer Hunter) as country boy Claude Hooper Bukowski, a Vietnam draftee who embarks on an adventure of a lifetime when he meets a group of counterculture hippies: Berger (Treat Williams, Smooth Talk), Jeannie (Annie Golden, TV's Orange Is the New Black), Hud (Dorsey Wright, The Warriors) and Woof (Don Dacus). Introduced to a world of free love and hallucinogens, Claude's eyes are also opened to the darker side of class, race and big city life when he becomes infatuated with a beautiful debutante, Sheila (Beverly D'Angelo, Coal Miner's Daughter).
