Coming to Turner Classic Movies 12-18-2008


It will be good to finally get to see this movie. Like so many "counterculture" movies from the major studios in the late 1960's it seems to have gotten lost. Whether it's great or a stinker, I want to see it for myself to make up my own mind.

I agree,I liked seeing L.A. in the late 60's and how people dressed and talked.

I watched it for the first time. It is a nice time capsule of Los Angeles in the late 60's. I get the feeling that Demy found a bunch of interesting locations and came up with a storyline that would allow him to explore the city. One thing he really captured well is the atmosphere of Santa Monica Blvd. east of Highland.
