I'm so glad that I stumbled across this documentary without having seen any of the advertising for it.
At first I was a little put off by the strange appearance and the sexually-charged comments of Ron Holiday, but ultimately they contributed to what makes this story so interesting. This isn't a story about Hollywood-perfect people living scripted lives but very real, very unique people.
I won't give away any spoilers but only say that there is an air of foreboding throughout the film that lets you know all did not end well with the trio of performers who were the Cat Dancers.
The filmmaker and editors did a fabulous job with the old footage. A lot of post production houses only wish they could make video look like that, and the soundtrack was perfect.
I didn't cry until the end credits when the song "I want to be a lion tamer" (I think it was) began.
I hope to see more by this newcomer!
