Brooke Bundy and Kevin Coughlin in Os Jovens Fugitivos (1968)

Follows the lives of three unrelated teenagers as they run away from their respective homes, each for different reasons. Arriving in Chicago, one tries to make good with his life only to find it a little more difficult than he had imagined; one falls in with "the rock and roll set" and comes to a violent end; and one gets mixed up with prostitutes, but comes good in the end. Shows things from both the parents' side and the kids' side. The underlying story is that you can't solve your problems on the road if you can't solve them at home.

Don't let this happen to YOU!

I don't know why they call this the YOUNG runaways.

Most of the actors are mid 20s to early 30s. Richard Dreyfus runs away at age 32. He's a draft dodger who speaks only in hippie lingo. Patty McCormick is lovely as a girl who meets the wrong guys. Brooke Bundy is always great to watch because she doesn't act, she just WHINES her way through every project. It is good the girls brought along their false eyelashes because jobs are scarce - except for "modeling." Brooke lost her suitcase and is taken in by two girls working as "models" willing to get her in the business. Uh oh. Entertaining. Dated. Moderate camp value. Watch for the always fabulous Isabel Stanford in a small role. Be careful out there people!

Hilariously awful!

Terrible writing, directing, acting, music, and plot combined to form an unintentionally funny pile of garbage!

It's worth watching for laughs, but it's also full of notable actors and actresses. Isabel Sanford, Duck Sargent, Richard Dreyfuss, Brooke Bundt, Norman Fell, et al.

Horribly out of touch film attempting to draw young people back to the movies.

Even the theme song seems like a spoof of itself!

Good Cautionary Tale

This is a less pretentious "Rebel Without a Cause". It is lighter, more pleasant and digestible. Coughlin shines, and he also wrote the charming title song, sung by the sadly forgotten Arthur Prysock. It is highly ironic, that whereas Dreyfuss was a bit player and Coughlin the lead, five years later, the roles were reversed on the memorable Gunsmoke episode "This Golden Land" where Coughlin plays a bit part and Dreyfuss gets a chance to shine. This film is preachy, but in a respectful and loving manner. And it has an artistic dimension.

You don't want to end up like this, students!

In 1974, our vice-principal -- who was also our guidance counselor -- made us watch this film. We were in Grade 8, it was the last week of school before the summer holidays, and we were soon going to experience the frightening world of high school.

Needless to say, we were completely absorbed. Our vice-principal's attempt to scare us straight certainly worked. To this day, I have never stolen a car! Thanks, Richard Dreyfuss.

Unusually good songs

I enjoyed the film -- a 1968 scared-straight, after-school ditty with some ridiculous elements. But it also includes some really good songs -- songs that could've come from the pen of Love's Arthur Lee. I'm writing this today because Jim Weatherly -- who wrote those songs -- done died a few days ago. His best-known song is "Midnight Train to Georgia", recorded by Gladys Knight & the Pips, but the couple that are here are memorable, too. When I first saw this film about six or seven years ago on TCM and noticed the songs, I emailed Weatherly and we talked about the tunes. That wouldn't have happened with John Williams.
