大学教授萧元熙与妻子决裂后，决心要把小女佣余珍改造成为自己理想的妻子。余珍原是个出身低微的小大姐，深受封建思想和旧习惯的束缚。萧元熙不厌其烦，从思想修养到待人处事，为她设计了一整套的改造方案。经过一段时间的改造，余珍果然摆脱了旧的束缚，从对妇女地位的认识到谈吐举止，都能 达到现代妇女的水准。萧元熙非常满意自己创造的奇迹，与余珍结成了夫妻，过上了称心满意的小家庭生活。但好景不长，有了新思想的余珍，在生活中要求有更多的独立自主，引起萧元熙的烦恼。一二八事变后，余珍因父兄遇难，毅然投身抗日救亡运动，但得不到萧元熙的理解。萧元熙迫不及待地将余珍关在家中，断绝她与妇女抗日运动的联系。几年后，余珍生下一子，萧元熙憧憬重新过上理想的家庭生活时，八一三上海抗战爆发。他把余珍母子托给一位妇女运动者，自己偕老友同去汉口做动员民众抗战的工作。于是余珍再度参加抗日救亡活动，服务于难民救援工作。萧元熙到达汉口后，担任动员委员会委员，电召余珍离沪前往。不料余珍于途中遇敌机轰炸，幼子惨死，悲痛之余，决心投身到更广大的争取自由的战场。当萧元熙在码头迎接她时，意外地发现理想的妻子已是一个女兵。由于夫妻俩志趣各异，一个向往舒适生活，一个追求光明前途，思想感情上无法协调，促使余珍悄然出走。这时，萧元熙终于怀疑，进而悔恨自己改造妇女的理想。不久，武汉失守，萧元熙流亡桂林，重执教鞭，并一反往昔妇女解放的论调，在报上撰文鼓吹把妇女关入家门。敌军进逼桂林，落魄的萧元熙随着难民队伍通过封锁线时，意外地与护送难民的战地工作队队员余珍相遇，发现她已变成另一种新型的人，无奈萧元熙只能目送她奔向遥远广阔的前程。

Deserves recognition as an interesting misunderstanding of the hallucination generation, 20 January 2007Author: TimothyFarrell from Worcester, MA"Wild in the Streets" comes from the same school of film making that spawned other attempts to connect to the counterculture such as "Skidoo" and "Candy". The difference between this and the aforementioned films is that "Wild in the Streets" is reasonably clever and well-made. It isn't sympathetic to the counterculture and will likely offend those with fond memories of the time. Surprisingly, it was a big hit when released and appealed to the youth whom it ridiculed so much. Unlike "The Trip" and "Psych-Out" (two other AIP films), its not an accurate representation of the movement at all. However it does work as social satire.The direction by Barry Shear is good and makes innovative use of split screen photography. Plus, he keeps everything moving at a quick pace. In its funny moments, the film works well. In its attempts at drama, its helplessly dated and just as funny as the humorous moments. Christopher Jones underplays his role and Shelly Winters overacts. Hal Holbrook offers the best performance and Diane Varsi achieves the right note of "grooviness". The script by Robert Thom has its moments, especially the ending (easily the most ingenious part of the film). "Wild in the Streets" isn't perfect, but deserves recognition as an interesting misunderstanding of the hallucination generation. Those into this kind of kitsch will enjoy it the most. I'd rather watch "The Trip" or "Psych-Out" however. (6/10)-from imdb
