I first heard of this documentary of a teen/emerging adult singing group when Premiere magazine showcased some Oscar mistakes of which one of them was the Academy awarding this Best Documentary Feature of 1968. Turns out this actually made its debut in late '67, so the institution had to forfeit the award. Before actually watching this on YouTube, I found out on this site that it was actually scripted which was obvious whenever scenes are staged for the group to break out in song outside of the stage though those are some of the most charming sequences. Knowing one of those members was Vicki Lawrence just before becoming part of the cast of "The Carol Burnett Show", I recognized her right away and was amused by some of what she says and does here. This was quite a charming film to watch so on that note, I recommend Young Americans.
