Logan's Run 1976 MGM

Michael York plays Logan 5, a sort of policeman called a sandman, in the year 2274. No one lives past the age of 30. They are all placed on a large carosel, and blown up. This is reffered to as the renewal. York's co worker is Francis, played by Richard Jordan. Jordan beleives in the whole renewal process, but York's character begins to question the procedure. Jenny Augutter plays Logan's love interest. The film has some good special effects (for 1976) and sounds quite well. The performances are good, and still hold up today, especially Peter Ustinov as the old man, and Roscoe Lee Brown as the robot guy called Box. Farrah Faucet is also included in the cast. ****
