"Two Thumbs Up!"- Siskel & Ebert
The 1960s come to life in this gripping film.Berkeley in the Sixties captures the decade's events- the birth of the Free Speech Movement, civil rights marches, anti-Vietnam War protests, the counter culture, the women's movement, and the rise of the Black Panthers- in all their immediacy and passion.Dramatic archival footage interwoven with present day interviews and 18 songs from the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Joan Baez, The Band and Jefferson Airplane make Berkeley in the Sixties "probably the best documentary on the Sixties to date!"Village Voice
