LOGAN'S RUN
"LOGAN'S RUN" --- (1976) ---
MY THOUGHTS: I was 7 when this film debuted. I remember going to see this as soon as it came out on video, because I was a big fan of "Charlie's Angels", and I couldn't wait to see Farrah Fawcett in a movie! I hadn't given any real thought to the movie itself, so I was somewhat surprised that I liked it as much as I did. I really got into the storyline. Although it is somewhat dated now, I still enjoy the storyline, and the acting is very good. It was fun re-visiting it and was a nostalgic experience for me.
