Jenny Agutter - Female star of Logan's Run


Logan�s Run

One of those films that is always showing on rainy Sunday afternoons when there�s nothing else to watch.

Science fiction thriller in which everyone over the age of 30 has to go through "renewal" which is actually death but of course the population don�t know this. Set in the 23rd century in a world of peace and pleasure, nobody grows old. Some members of the community realise the truth and try to flee to a place called "Sanctuary". These people are known as "runners" but first they have to get past the "Sandmen" - secret police.

One of the �sandmen�, Logan 5 (Michael York) is assigned to discover the truth about "Sanctuary" but realises the truth about "renewal" and flees the city with Jessica 6 (Jenny Agutter).
