Poster for

"The way the sixties are going" is a well-known phrase from the 1990 comedy-home-repair documentary Higher State starring Dennis Hopper, Kiefer Sutherland, and Carol Kane.

Quotation

At the end of the film, gruff but loveable LSD laboratory engineer and licensed HVAC contractor Hurley Wake (Dennis Hopper) states:

The way the sixties are going, the fifties are going to make the forties feel like the thirties — !

Once we get out of the eighties, the ninties are going to make the sixties look like the sixties— !
