Interesting facts
Revolution is a documentary film by Jack O'Connell made in San Francisco in 1967. In 1986, it was re-released with added reminiscences as The Hippie Revolution.
Production
The project's original title was Revolution: The Flowering of the Hippie Concept, originally conceived by Jack O'Connell in February 1967 to be the definitive documentary of the new hippie movement flowering at the time in San Francisco's Haight-Ashbury district. O'Connell hired cameraman Bill Godsey to persuade his hippie friends in the Haight that they would be accurately represented.
