Changes is a 1969 American drama film directed and produced by Hall Bartlett.[1]
Plot[edit]
Set in the 1960s, the film follows the lead character Kent (Kent Lane), as he travels along the California coast.[1] As he drifts, he recalls his former troubled girlfriend, Bobbi (Manuela Thiess) who committed suicide after he broke off their relationship. During his travels he meets up with different women. However, he moves along rather than stay put in hopes of finding a meaning to his life.

Reception[edit]
John Simon described Changes as 'an abomination'.[2] In the New York Times, Howard Thompson said "If "Changes" had a culminating dramatic effect equal to its perception and visual beauty, the picture [...] would be a masterpiece. Even so, it is one of the most imaginative, haunting and artistic movies yet made of contemporary youth at bay. It is a remarkable film and — more than that — a remarkable experience."[3]
