TOMATOMETER
At once acidly funny and ruthlessly on-point....[The film] dissects the consumer-media apparatus top to bottom...
Film Comment
[I]mportantly, it delineates a central thesis in Watkins' work -- the idea that pop culture is the opium of the people....PRIVILEGE seems ripe for its won cult following.

Product Description:
In a totalitarian future, Steven Shorter (Paul Jones) is a rock-&-roll sensation packaged to unite the masses and offer sanitized rebellion. But an encounter with a beautiful painter (Jean Shrimpton) directs him on a course to turn the tables on his handlers in a surprising way. Peter Watkins (THE WAR GAME) directs this caustic satire on pop culture and corporate control that was alternately praised and excoriated upon its initial release.
