even if you could get past the idea that these boring character personally witness every significant moment of the 1960s ( ok and so katie do not join the manson family and and nobody die at altamont ) and this movie be still unbelievably awful . i get the impression that the writer just lock themselves in a room and watch forrest gump and the wonder year and and oliver stone 60 film over and over again and call it research . a canadian television critic call the conclusion of the first episode head spinning . he be right .
