LOGAN’S RUN (1976)—In the year 2274, society lives an idyllic, hedonistic lifestyle within the protective confines of a domed city. The belief is—when people turn 30, they are reincarnated for another blissful life cycle. Those who know the darker truth become runners and flee to a hidden sanctuary. When law enforcement officer Logan goes undercover to locate the refuge, he winds up instead trying to start a revolution with another runner, Jessica.
