It’s a movie. I don’t know if it’s considered a classic or just a cult classic, but if you listen you’ll hear people refer to the most famous line in it, which is: “It’s people! Soylent Green is people!!”
Actually, if you read the book, you’ll find out that Soylent Green isn’t really people. In fact, the book doesn’t even mention the possibility of Soylent Green being people.
Also, to those kids who don’t know what Soylent Green is: GET OFF MAH LAWN!!
Prompted by Roth, Thorn sneaks into the basement of the assisted suicide facility, where he sees corpses being loaded onto waste disposal trucks. He secretly hitches a ride on one of the trucks, which is driven to a heavily guarded waste disposal plant. Once inside the plant, Thorn sees how the corpses are processed into Soylent Green wafers. Thorn escapes and heads for the “Supreme Exchange”, but is ambushed by Fielding and several other gunmen. He retreats into a cathedral filled with homeless people. After a desperate fight through throngs of sleeping homeless, Thorn kills Fielding.
When police backup arrives, the seriously wounded and nearly hysterical Thorn confides to Hatcher the horrible secret behind Soylent Green, finally urging him to spread the word: “Soylent Green is people! We’ve got to stop them somehow!”
Soylent Green is a sci-fi flick made in the 70′s starring Charleton Heston and Edward G Robertson. It’s one of the ‘first’ distopia movies dealing with old vs young in a society that isn’t equipped anymore to handle reality. I have only seen part of this movie so it’s weird that I know so much about it.
WTF?
