Getting Straight

America's children lay it on the line.

A spirited 1970s campus comedy-drama about a reformed activist caught between his desire for stability and the pull of student movements, balancing romance, ideology, and self-discovery.

Graduate student Harry Bailey was once one of the most visible undergraduate activists on campus, but now that he's back studying for his master's, he's trying to fly right. Trouble is, the campus is exploding with various student movements, and Harry's girlfriend, Jan, is caught up in most of them. As Harry gets closer to finishing his degree, he finds his iconoclastic attitude increasingly aligned with the students rather than the faculty.
