So much covered in this Lighthouse Trails article, including a link to an interview with Connie Frisbee, the wife of Lonnie Frisbee, who was featured in the movie, Jesus Revolution.

Revival did occur during the sixties and seventies, but it happened when people (in this case the young people) became desperate enough to hunger after truth—until they got it. It was God’s response to genuinely seeking hearts. Perhaps, as Connie Frisbee explains, the greatest flaw of the movie is double faceted in that:

And b) it was whitewashed (Connie: “If the truth were known, I wouldn’t look so good. Lonnie wouldn’t look great. Chuck Smith wouldn’t look good. Greg Laurie wouldn’t look good. But who would look good? God would be looking stellar.”)
