What they share
Both films are directed by Lou Adler, and they both carry the playful mood tag, and they sit in Comedy territory. If that's the register that drew you to Up in Smoke, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.
What Ladies and Gentlemen, the Fabulous Stains is
Here's a movie that understands the persuasive power of a good sneer. Three teenage girls form a punk band and accidentally become feminist icons. It's a scrappy, low-budget affair, but does manage to capture a certain moment in time.
