The Cockettes: A Guest Review from Amy Basham

If you are looking for a ride down a wild road back to a time very different than ours, this is the perfect documentary for you. Time warping back to the 1970's lifestyle of the communes; this is the story of a group called The Cockettes. They were a revolutionary group of androgynous people looking for a good time, unknowingly changing the course of many things to come. The watcher is introduced to the story line through the people who lived it, and the documentary is basically random interviews amongst clips corresponding to the same people 30 years ago.
