In May of
1970, the United States Government seized the only English-language prints
of this film on charges of obscenity. While it was ultimately cleared
in Federal Court, the movie mysteriously disappeared shortly after its
release. Now, it can be seen complete and uncut (featuring the highly
controversial soundtrack by Country Joe McDonald).
Joey is a
struggling writer with no money. His roommate Carl is a charming stud
with a taste for young girls. Together, these two dreamers will laugh,
love and screw their way through a decadent Paris paved with wanton women.
