Storyline:

Peter and Buddy are throwing a 4th of July Fire Island party and you’re all invited. Best described as a low-budget version of The Boys In The Band.

User review:

Sticks and Stones distributed by Something Weird Video, is a real product of it’s time: 1970. Unless you were older than 12 during the 70’s, the fashion will be surreal.

The movie centers on the relationship of Peter and Buddy who are throwing a party on Fire Island during the 4th. of July. There are several recognizable stereotypical characters most viewers will recognize.

It is difficult to determine if the distributor is ridiculing or trying to make a point regarding gay life in the 70’s. There are ads for some of the other ‘odd’ films they sell. For the contemporary viewer, Sticks and Stones should be viewed as a supreme example of high camp. Get into a mellow mood and enjoy this interesting snapshot of a time before AIDS.
