This 16mm film stirred a lot of controversy. State hospital employees held a press conference threatening a lawsuit to ban the film, a major drug company wanted to buy HURRY TOMORROW and re-edit the material to show their product in good light, in Los Angeles there was a bomb threat at the cinema, secret memos on the film were circulated to California psychiatric hospital administrators, and at least one film review was squelched. Yet, after watching HURRY TOMORROW then California Governor Jerry Brown refused to take action to ban it; instead he initiated a statewide investigation into patient deaths in state hospitals. The film was screened for legislators around the country, for the district attorney and coroner in Los Angeles, and it is credited with triggering the major news story of 1976 in California.
