"There is a fountain of youth:
It is your mind, your talents, the creativity you bring to your life and the lives of people you love.
When you learn to tap this source, you will truely have defeated age."
- Sophia Loren

It's been a while since I saw it but I think the Bulldozers were just riot police for an overcrowded world. Old people would be made into the product, some voluntarily so.

Also, Logan's Run is apparently being remade and will be released next year. IMDB says the new age in the film is not 30, but 21. I think that says something about society in general's perception of age, no?

Actually, that's just going back to the original book. In the book (written in 1967) the cut off age was 21 but when they made the movie they didn't think they could pass Michael York off as being under 21.

Really? That's interesting, 30 sounds better to me though... 21 is just implausible, even for a story like that.

It's all good if you're healthy, no matter what your age. If you're not healthy each day can become a burden, no matter what your age.
