This week, we talk to Los Angeles filmmaker, actor, and former programmer at the legendary New Beverly Cinema, Julia Marchese, about one of the greatest rock n’ roll films of all time, BEYOND THE VALLEY OF THE DOLLS!!! We also talk about getting Russ Meyer’s autograph, the incredible stories behind the music written for the film, the need (more than ever) for repertory cinema houses, the Sex Pistol film that Russ Meyer almost made, actors who don’t blink, which of this film's characters would survive in a modern-day horror movie, a debate on whether the band manager (Harris) is a drag or a necessary evil, the magic of seeing a Russ Meyer film for the first time, not being able to tell if the actors are good in this film or not, daydreaming about owning props from the movie, Roger Ebert’s incredible script and dialogue for the movie and so much more!
So come with the gentle people and spread love across the land on this week’s episode of Revolutions Per Movie.
