Subject: Late 60's Teen Movie

Written By: 90steen on 12/10/08 at 11:34 pm

I've been looking for movies about teenagers from each era, and I have found one for every era but the 60's.

There are plenty of early 60's movies out there, but I'm looking for more of a late 60's movie just about teenagers and their culture and what not.

Any ideas?

How about Where the Boys Are? (1960)

Also Splendor in the Grass (1961)

I don't know if This Property is Condemned qualifies but Natalie Wood was excellent in it.


and then this is certainly not a teen movie but a movie you should check out To Kill A Mocking Bird.

I think that The Outsiders era is late 60's

What about American Graffiti? "Where were you in '62?"

You ought to check out "Riot On Sunset Strip" (1967) and "Wild In The Streets" (1968). 

Great, cheesy teenage exploitation movies from American International Pictures.  Both of these movies are about the "rebellious youth culture" of the late 60's, and they both have hilarious reinactments of bad LSD trips.  ;D

are we talking films that are set in the 60s but were filmed in other decades or are we talking actual films from the 60s?  (I thought it was the latter)

I think you're right Q.  90steen wants a movie made in the late 60's about teens from that era but I didn't read it that way when I first checked it out.

It's okay  :)

I'll explain more.

You've all given me some early 60's teen movies, which is fine and I'll keep in mind, but I've seen my share of early 60's teen movies, but not late 60's, and the early 60's was different from the late 60's very much so.

But It doesn't matter when the movie was actually made, as long as it's set in the late 60's. (67 - 69)

It's fine.

Sorry to confuse some of you.

"Village Of The Giants (1965). Teen angst unleashed when a group of teen-agers become giants. They eat a sausage-looking substance called "Goo" created in High School science class and grow to 5 times their normal height. Think "Attack of the 50 Foot Woman" meets "Wild In the Streets". Fun Z-grade movie.
