In the year 2022, the population of New York is 85 million. The starving masses depend upon the government manufactured food item Soylent Green to exist. But in the midst of a murder investigation, a cop named Thorn (Charlton Heston) uncovers the chilling source of the product. Heston delivers another great scenery-chomping performance, and Robinson (in his last role) is great as the sole holdout who prefers to dream of steak and potatoes while starving.
