Alot of young Americans were running away, experimenting with drugs, disobeying authority figures, etc. They hoped to make the target audience conform to more traditional lifestyles and help in the controlling of those portions of the youth population which were marked as deviant through social and legal pressures. While many youths were harming themselves through their own actions, the film has clear bias. Interestingly, I would argue that the film painted a more sympathetic picture, in some interesting ways, of those aforementioned portions of the population the films makers marked as deviant than other examples from more recent points in time as a means of not turning away youth audiences from the film and persuading them. However, one would have to more throughly compare propaganda with the same communicative aims over time to be sure.
