Carl Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 I've never seen this movie. Anyone else think it has something to do with Hotel California?: Some of the lyrics bring up images from the Tennessee Williams/John Huston movie "Night of the Iguana", in particular the "pretty, pretty boys" dancing in the courtyard. Made in 1964, the movie could easily have been seen by members of the band. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_jr_ Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 You should make it a point to see it. For it's day, it covers a lot of very taboo subjects for the times. Marijuana, homosexuality, group sex (sorry folks, there's no delicate way to say that), alcoholism. Plus, Ava Gardner is gorgeous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryansgirl319 Posted May 15, 2005 Report Share Posted May 15, 2005 Maybe "orgification" is a delicate way of saying group sex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanAm Posted May 16, 2005 Report Share Posted May 16, 2005 The Night of The Iguana was a brilliant film, but I don't really see much of a connection between it and Hotel California by the Eagles. I believe the real Hotel California is in Todos Santos in Baja California. As far as I know, neither Don Henley nor any of his bandmates have ever stayed there. I believe the hotel changed hands about 3 years ago and has undergone extensive renovations. I hear it's quite posh now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
