LOGAN'S RUN (WARNER)

Odd but interesting film about a future society where people must end their life at 30 at a bizarre ritual called Carrousel where they are supposedly reborn.
Michale York stars as Logan 5, a sandman authorized to terminate runners fleeing Carrousel. He finds himself in a tight spot when he turns 30 and must also flee, but there is a neat twist to all of this that I will not spoil for those of you who haven't seen the film.
Jenny Agutter stars as Logan's girlfriend and Peter Ustinov is an old man they discover living in the workld outside their domed city.
This is an effective and poetic film. Check it out sometime.
