This short documentary, although lacking a known director, offers an intimate glimpse into Wakefield Poole's life during a pivotal time in San Francisco from '74 to '79. It captures the raw essence of an era, exploring his involvement with the Nob Hill Theater and the vibrant nightlife of Hot Flash of America. The pacing is reflective, allowing viewers to soak in the atmosphere of those colorful parties and the daring performances, particularly the celebrated act featuring porn star Roger. The film’s tone is nostalgic yet candid, perfectly mirroring the exploration of sexuality and artistic expression during a transformative time. Fans of underground cinema and queer history will appreciate its unique perspective.
This documentary is somewhat scarce, as it wasn't widely released and has a niche appeal among collectors interested in queer cinema. It may not be easy to find, but it has generated a bit of interest due to its insightful look at an important figure in LGBTQ+ history. The limited availability adds to its allure for those who appreciate the deeper layers of underground film culture.
