First of all, I was definitely a groupie in the early 90's so watching this film brought so much of that back for me. I found this to be a realistic depiction of someone like myself who gets drawn into that whole scene and becomes obsessed over band members.  It doesn't matter what state you live in or what kind of band, groupies always remain the same.  Its this feeling that is so wonderfully captured.  Its a coming of age story for teenage girls.  I especially liked the fact that she finally realized at the end what it meant to be a true woman, she saw the error of her ways but at the same time, she didn't make apologies for the mistakes she made.
