Privilege (1967)

A futuristic British government coalition manipulates the masses through the aggressive promotion of rock star Steven Shorter (Manfred Mann frontman Paul Jones).

Peter Watkins' grim satire co-stars Mark London, William Job. 103 min. Widescreen (Enhanced); Soundtrack: English mono; Subtitles: English, French; bonus short "Lonely Boy" (1962); photo gallery; theatrical trailer.
