Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was Robert De Niro's first credited film role. Brian De Palma discovered him in an Off-Off-Broadway production and cast him for $50 a day.
The film was shot guerrilla-style at the 1967 New York City Be-In and features real protesters—De Palma essentially smuggled fiction into documentary history.
