The Explosive Generation

This 1961 gem stars William Shatner as the hip teacher at school who engages his class in lessons about sex and avoiding hitting your head on the boom microphone.

Weird camera angles, a teenage Beau Bridges, and the persistent aroma of Vitalis and Dippity-Do grace this classic intergenerational conflict between prudish elders and their pre boomer brood.

Pour yourself a stiff one and have your own "Mystery Science Theater" without the commentary, which would be superfluous in any event.

Awesome companion viewing for Mad Men fans for its 1960's verisimilitude and - OMG he touched Janet WHERE that wild night at the beach house?

And... Wait until you meet the principal!
