Confessions of a Male Groupie

The drugs and sex debauchery of Rock-n-Roll world of the 1970’s gets a gay twist in this joyous yet frustrating porno cum cautionary tale Confessions of a Male Groupie. Subtitled (in homage to Stanley Kubrick and his black sense of humor) “How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Electric Banana”, this slice of a certain kind of life incorporates and captures the freewheeling abandon of post-hippie culture in Hollywood. At times this film is both shocking and radical, with its scenes of shooting up and celebration of pleasure for pleasure’s sake, but ultimately the rapturous ride of the main character, known only as The Groupie, ends badly.
