THE GONE WITH THE WIND of 60 s/70 s Underground Cinema 10/10星
Funny, near brilliant, underground movie about the sexual perversions of everyday people. Centers around Kennedy (who is a shoe in for a young Goldie Hawn) and her various experiences trying to find John Smith the greatest obscene phone caller she s ever heard. Problem is it s New York City, which leads her to a lot of wrong Smiths. The real John Smith is played by actor Norman Rose who s deep resonate, newsman voice (he s worked as a narrator on many other features) only adds to the hilarity as he explains in great detail how he came to be the greatest obscene phone caller of all time . This is interspread by true life confessions of former obscene phone callers that are so twisted you ll just have to laugh. Also has a wild, far out animated sequence that could easily fit into a Marilyn Manson video. Much more provacative than today s hardcore adult films, which tend to be very mechanical. A truly unique film viewing experience that is similar to the much herald PUTNEY SWOPE, but is more consistently funnier and imaginative. A terrific example of grass roots filmmaking were the creativity and ingenuity of the director makes todays $200 million, special effects laden blockbusters look as stale as yesterday s lunch. Most amazing scene features actor Barry Morse (Lt Griggs of the old FUGITIVE TV series) having over ten naked women lay on top of him at the same time!!
