Trivia
Carol Doda was already a popular waitress-dancer at the Condor Club in 1964 North Beach when its publicist suggested she wear a "monokini," the topless women's swimsuit just launched by designer Rudi Gernreich. Doda immediately agreed. That caused an huge sensation, spurring widespread imitation, in addition to arrests and lawsuits. The same happened five years later when she pioneered a "bottomless" performance, though that time she did not ultimately triumph in court.

Too Much Talk

For a hot subject i couldnt make it past ten minutes. I fast forward talk.talk.talk.we arent interested in managers. The brief clips of Carol topless and dancing are just that-brief. How can you take San Francisco Northbeach and just plod along. Cut this in half. Cut the endless reminiscing. When i turned eighteen and eighteen year olds were now considered adults my friend and i went. The young gogo girls were beautiful and smiling. They looked like they were having fun. Then Carol Doda....not so much. It was like watching my grandmother dance and i dont mean that as a compliment. That evening in late 1973 was like this documentary?....very mediocre.
