R.P.M.

Stanley Kramer had a knack for tackling stories where social change is the background for compelling drama on a personal level, as in Guess Whos Coming to Dinner and The Defiant Ones. In R.P.M. the politics are more overt, and Kramer deftly takes on the counter-culture of the late 60s to explore how change impacts the individual. Anthony Quinn is the liberal and well-regarded college professor in a period of increasing radicalism. His students demand change, and he supports their desires, but when his role of professor-advisor changes to college administrator, he must decide where to draw the line. Ann-Margret (Viva Las Vegas, Tommy), Gary Lockwood (Model Shop), and Paul Winfield (Sounder) also star in this powerful examination of campus life in its most dynamic stage in history.
