Synopsis
This documentary is one volume in a series that looks at people, issues, and trends of the 20th century. In this volume, hosted by television personality David Frost, the subject is changing attitudes toward romance, sex, and marriage in the 20th century. While some places remain remarkably the same in their views, the Western world has undergone a great metamorphosis in its views on relationships. It is startling that a century that could begin in Victorian repressiveness could end with sexual permissiveness, gender demarcations obscured, and sexual roles uncertain. Frost follows all the issues of the breakdown of traditional systems in this revolutionary century. ~ Rose of Sharon Winter, All Movie Guide
