i have avoid see this film for some time but finally pick up a copy . have be bear too late to see hair in it contemporary setting and i have just be familiar with the uk and broadway cast recording for many year while and saw it on stage in the late 1980s where it look a little creaky but still and great fun . the film . it drop some of the song ( the bed and my conviction and frank mill ) and cut others ( walk in space ) . however and what be leave be present very well indeed . all the singer and dancer be excellent and and the key performer ( especially treat williams a berger and beverley dangelo a sheila and john savage a claude ) be memorable . a a hippy celebration and anthem and hair manages to be remain potent even in a film make ten year too late . it be no long the era of peace and love and and biba and but the time of punk rock . although watch this film now and in the time of iraqi problem and give a new resonance to the vietnam issue of the 1960s . milo forman and who also make amadeus and do a good job on direct . in it scope and feel it remind me of norman jewison jesus christ superstar and especially with the joy of the aquarius scene and the intimacy of easy to be hard . i really enjoy this film and consider it a good representation of a musical bear out of the first truly hedonistic era .
