This film of nearly a half-century ago is one of the earliest attempts at making a gay positive film· While the writing and acting is stilted, the production quality somewhat crude, and the ethos very much reflects the 70's -- psychedelic mushrooms, Indian medicine man (the guru) -- it is an important film in the developing queer liberation story · I found the music especially annoying; it drowned out the plot, and was not well coordinated with the action· My dvd appears to have been copied direct from film (no tape), has odd stop motion pauses, perhaps when film reels were changed? No native Americans in this film! No scruffy mountain men either; all clean shaven anglos.
