I found this by accident on a food blog, wherein it's embedded, and just finished watching it.
I can't really explain how I feel about it, except that I was uncomfortable watching it and it made me very sad. It will be interesting to hear how it affects other Americans in my age group, as well as everyone else, of course.
What was creepy was that I had to keep reminding myself that everything depicted was 40 years ago and that there would be no epilogue to the film.
It's 58 minutes long and starts streaming immediately. The quality is good, so watch it in full screen.

At one point the narrator says it's the year of the cock, so it was filmed
sometime between February 17, 1969 and February 5, 1970.
