“1972” is about a family in that year facing many changes.  The father (Robert) is a conservative with a sense of humor who likes Archie Bunker; the mother (Maureen) is exploring women’s liberation;  Marnie, 19, is taking classes in feminism and social movements; and Bob, 20, is pursuing the American Dream. The sparks fly when Janice, a free-loving hippie, comes on the scene, and both Bob and Marnie are attracted to her...
