… sick-making at times and occasionally amusing
At the same time you had blaxploitation movies you also had hipsploitation films too … actors who understood NOTHING of what was going on ( Nicholson is a great actor but NOT a hippie him and his mates here look like jocks going to a costumed ball ) acted in movies written by studios trying to cash in on the latest in their eyes fad … most of these 60’s films used “straights” in hippie drag and that is never going to be convincing; it is literally a travesty…

Also it must be strange they felt they had to sample scenes from West Side Story in effect …. the final message was do not do drugz kidz they will fork u up … fine by me but not done this way … watch The Strawberry Statement instead or Zabriskie Point or More 1969 by Barbet Schroeder more honest films about the period & simply better films …

liking the first half
Jenny is a deaf runaway. She arrives in Haight-Ashbury looking for her missing brother Steve (Bruce Dern). She is befriended by Stoney (Jack Nicholson) and his bandmates. They help her search for her brother while avoiding the cops. Dave (Dean Stockwell) is a disgruntled former bandmate.

The first half is alright. The characters are compelling. It’s a road trip to find her brother. The high point is the junkyard where they find their big villains. I like the church where the lady complains about their way of dress which the movie turns the camera towards depictions of Christ. It’s good until it turns into a psychedelic mess. The relationship drama is a bit frustrating although it’s probably necessary. It would be better if Jenny catches up to Steve and joins him in escaping the junkyard thugs while rescued by Stoney. It’s almost that but the plot is too muddled. This is an interesting slice of that cinematic era and it’s good until it’s not.
