The film is a great look back at a time in New York club life that I participated in and that, alas, no longer exists. Mario Diaz, the subject of the film, brought a remarkably optimistic energy into NYC club life. As a native New Yorker, I can say that we are many things but NYC tends to be more pessimistic than optimistic especially in the gay world and ESPECIALLY during the dark days of Giuliani. Mario brought a great vibe to everything he did. Never bitchy, always professional and the center of great times, he knew how to make the mix work. The film is a heartfelt look back at some of those days. It gives some insight into his personal life that was also very touching (but never corny). For anyone that cares to see a film made with lots of love by those that clearly admire what Mario has done, the film is a very worthwhile experience. I saw the film at it's NYC premiere and am waiting for the DVD release.
