Movie review
From Short Review - NY
The go-to event for all rock-loving homos, gender benders and their fellow travelers (no matter where they fell on the Kinsey scale), SqueezeBox! raged on from 1994 to 2001, despite Rudy Giuliani’s attempts to end all fun in NYC. In this doc by Zach Shaffer and Steve Saporito, it receives an appropriately raunchy tribute. As one reveler recalls, “I like to have fun, but without ass-blood flying.”
[This film is an official selection of the TONY Film department for the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival. While it has not been given a star rating, our Film experts consider it to be among the superior entries to this event.]
