My Hustler - 16MM + Paul Morrissey Screen Test and Additional Fire Island Footage | Directed by Paul Morrissey
Drama | 1965 | 80MIN
Interview and Roxy Cinema present:
My Hustler consists of two extended conversations, first as a Fire Island host (the outrageously camp Ed Hood) contemplates the recumbent figure of the beach Adonis (Paul America) he has hired for the weekend, and then as the newcomer learns a few tricks of the trade from an older colleague “Joe” a/k/a Sugar Plum Fairy. A hit in its midnight engagement at the Film-Makers’ Cinematheque, My Hustler became one of the first Warhol films to escape the downtown orbit and open at a commercial theater in midtown.
Screens with:
Paul Morrissey [ST226], 1965 (4.5MIN)
[Fire Island, Long Island, NY, September 1965], 1965 (9MIN)

Richard C. Sarafian’s Vanishing Point (20th Century Fox, 1971) is the ultimate analog car chase movie with that hard-to-pin-down something extra. Written by renowned Cuban novelist Guillermo Cabrera Infante under a pseudonym (Guillermo Cain), it’s nominally the saga of a speedaddled Vietnam vet existentially on the lam in a Dodge Challenger. It’s also a modern Western, a dystopian allegory of our surveillance society, and a love letter to the muscle car, all rolled into one.

The Chelsea Girls, one of Warhol’s most ambitious and commercially successful films, is a brilliant example of the artist’s signature technique of assembling complete reels of unedited film in various ways. “In one film alone,” an early reviewer noted, “Warhol has sadism, masochism, whipping, transvestites, homos, prostitutes, a homosexual ‘Pope’, boredom, stunningly beautiful girls, depravity, humor, ‘psychedelics’, truth, honesty, liars, poseurs. . .” i.e. the whole wide world.

Beethoven's Nephew - 35MM | Directed by Paul Morrissey
Drama, Biography | 1985 | 103MIN
Interview and Roxy Cinema present:
Any study of Beethoven, portrayed here by Wolfgang Reichmann, tends to avoid the extraordinarily miserable and pathetic character of the man, a personality so petty, mean, and spiteful that he was incapable of habitation amongst ordinary people. Using Beethoven’s own words (Morrissey insisted that the screenplay, co-authored with Mathieu Carrière, conform strictly to historical truth), Beethoven’s Nephew turns a cynical, respectful eye on the composer who made it his life’s duty to take away from his sister Johanna (Jane Birkin) her only son Karl (Dietmar Prinz).
