The Champagne Club starts off in a charming world of four young, rich aristocrats who decided to vacation at Tim Miles' (Brian Donovan) parents house. The colors are vibrant, the food is exquisite, and the mood is maddening. The foursome continue through the first 20 minutes as regular people with regular problems, Tim and his girlfriend May (Sara Rinde) are a freshly engaged couple who are having trouble with the sexual aspect of their relationship, while Bruce Wallace (Robert Ripley) and his wife Connie (Jacqueline Meyer) seem to be struggling all together. Then the movie takes a sudden turn when one ponders, "Can there be life without art?" The baseline of the movie (Which I think everyone should consider this when going into the movie.) is, there -is- life without art; it's just not worth living. Then you take a dive into a colorful world of their double-crossing, cannibalistic, cocaine snorting problems, it will leave you wondering what was real and what was symbolism. The acting has its moments, the plot is sometimes mind boggling, but the vibrant colors and twists in this film makes it definitely worth the watch.
