I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much

Intense, gripping, stylish and poignant

It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.

This IMO is the best anti-war movie that has ever been made. Because it is so full of LIFE! It shows how wonderful life can be! I don't care about the drugs or that typical 70th polygamy stuff but about all these warm hearted very modest people who care for each other. Who live their lifes - no matter what - with everything they have and are. So I've never seen a better approach for an anti-war movie. Usually it's all about watching people getting killed. Which - for me - is staying within the logic of war instead of showing what life can be...It is somehow a very simple and naive and moral look at things - but exactly because of that it is a very strong reminder of what makes life worth living.Not to mention how beautiful some songs have been performed - it is such a shame that Cheryl Barnes never tried to develop a career worthy of her incredible talent!This movie although the costumes are so very typical 70ig is timeless.Also - every time I watch it I get excited and even happy!

Claude Hooper Bukowski (John Savage) leaves his Oklahoma family farm to go to NYC. He's a draftee ready to go to the Vietnam War. He encounters a group of hippie led by George Berger (Treat Williams). Sheila Franklin (Beverly D'Angelo) is from the stiff upper class riding a horse in Central Park. Claude is enticed by the free-spirited hippies. They crash Sheila's coming out party. Sheila and Claude fall in love with a lot of help from George. Eventually Claude goes to training in Nevada followed by Berger, Sheila and the hippies.This has a few iconic songs. The movie takes too much time in Central Park at the beginning. Treat Williams is great but the movie meanders. The cinematic style from Milos Forman is pretty weak. It's probably a much better musical play than a movie. The hippies aren't necessarily portrayed in the most positive light. There are some pretty harsh digs. The movie also feels dated without being a period piece.

The Musical is completely different category in the cinematography. It's really hard to create a work of art which do not affect by some catchphrases part of the best screen writing but with the whole magic of music that let people's mind fly through the movie make audience entertain. But Hair is not that musical it doesn't let people relax while watching it but make them think and pondering over questions deeply stuck in the human's history of the civilization. The war, and most specially Vietnam War, the consequences after it, the inner shaking that it provokes in human's soul lead Mr. Milos Forman to the path of making that extraordinary piece of pure cinema. A rollicking musical memoir. Affecting drama, exhilarating spectacle, provocative social observer. Fantastic musical, I highly recommend it. We all have to let the sun shine in our souls and realize that from the war nothing good may be borne - if we want to leave a better life we can just if we live in harmony with everything which means to leave in peace firstly with ourselves, and secondly with the others living creatures. What the phenomenal Mr. Forman wants to show us are exactly the ugly faces of the war but by the tragic finale to provoke a feeling of real catharsis that the good will always prevail over the evil.

I remember i watched this movie some years ago and i didn't remember it except the ending. When i watched it a second time, it was like i discovered the movie. I liked the songs because they talk about many life things like equality between peoples of different colors, the real face of the war, sex and of course the hair. I was surprised as there is a song which talk about drugs. I don't think it was common in the 70's to talk about drugs like this. The movie has some boring scenes like when they take a bath in a river. The last twenty minutes help the film to be better because there is a kind of message about solidarity between friends and i think Milos Forman wanted to tell us as your friends are important and can help you. I remembered only the ending because it was very emotional and it's an ending as you can't forget.
