Manson (film)

Manson is a documentary film made in 1973 about Charles Manson and his followers. It was directed by Robert Hendrickson and Laurence Merrick.

When Squeaky Fromme attempted to assassinate President Gerald Ford, the Manson film was banned by United States district court Judge Thomas McBride in order to preserve Frommes constitutional right to a fair and speedy trial. Robert Hendricksons freedom of speech was thus set aside and the matter was taken by the ACLU to the Supreme Court.Soundtrack music for the film was created by Brooks Poston and Paul Watkins, two former Manson associates. As well, music performed by the Manson Family can also be heard on the soundtrack. ........
