£52.00
No
one will ever make movies like Doris Wishman made movies. One of the
most prolific women filmmakers in the history of American cinema,
writer-director-editor Wishman created collisions between surrealism and
exploitation that feel like they materialized from an alternate
universe. THE FILMS OF DORIS WISHMAN: THE DAYLIGHT YEARS surveys the
early, sun-soaked nudist era of Wishman's career. From NUDE ON THE MOON
(Wishman's dreamlike sci-fi triumph) to HIDEOUT IN THE SUN (a crackpot
nudie-noir) AGFA + Something Weird are honored to present these
effervescent DIY treasures in gorgeous new restorations.
