Overview

A day in Hollywood, 1972, with young people looking for the 24 hours that will change their lives. Zach will open that night for a British rocker at Whisky a Go-Go; he lives in a canyon and plays impromptu duets with a mysterious guitarist he doesn't see. Tammy is a costume designer, open to quick sex with the various rockers she works with and loved from afar by Michael, a photographer recovering from a case of the clap. His good friend is Felix, a morose, alcoholic songwriter. On hand for comic relief is Marty Shapiro, a fast-talking record producer. Getting ready for the gig at the club, Zach's performance, and the early-morning aftermath comprise the film.

How It Feels

Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.

A stylish, breezy snapshot of a single night in 1970s Hollywood where aspiring musicians, hangers-on, and dreamers orbit the music scene hoping for their moment. It's equal parts comedy and melancholy, funny and sad at once, capturing both the exhilaration and fragility of chasing an artistic break.
