Groupie Girl

Great Hippies Nostalgia
This movie 'Groupie Girl' provides great insight into the true life of a hippie. It showcases the progressive maturity of a naive young woman who enters the the lifestyle and the decisions she makes that shapes her human character. In a sense this movie has a sentiment for every viewer, which is one of learning from decisions made as a young person. The acting isn't great, but it is the plot that drew me into the film. The characters are developed enough for the viewing audience to identify with the ones necessary to understand the point of the film, which is progressive maturity at a Tim that is confusing for teens as they enter adulthood. This is a b-movie with an intentional underlined plot and has a depth that is memorable-not Oscar material-but helps every person to identify with the folly and growth of the human spirit. Groupie Girl is the right movie for such an audience. That's why it gets four stars. However, the only disappointment is the brevity of the career of Esme Johns...

Good for people who like kitsch and mid-century production design
I love films that have a good story, most often, but sometimes I will watch a film simply because I want to see what people were wearing during a particular time period. This film falls into the latter category. It has a great 60s/70s look.

A Surprise Find
A shocking and honest view of how badly treated women were treated on the road by bands in the 1960s. This movie is the opposite of the summer of love crap dished out by American movie makers at the same time.
