Review

russ meyer always delivers a certain aesthetic and this one is no exception. it’s a hippie movie about the generation gap and the allure of fame as well as all the usual stuff that goes with a 60s era film (though it was released in 1970). this one is perhaps most notable because it was penned by roger ebert; his only film writing credit to my knowledge. it’s well written, if a bit self-aware at times. the summary at the end is a good example.
