Movie Reviews of Paul Morrissey Collection (Flesh / Trash / Heat)
Movie Review: Anthropological artifacts
Summary: 1 Stars
Without wanting to sound like Bob Dylan's Thin Man, I have to say that the movies in this collection are nothing more than anthropological artifacts, amusing in parts, but crude and technically deficient. The acting, if it qualifies as acting, portrays a gallery of marginalized outcasts in the main, just letting it all hang out for the cameras. Their performances are stiff and flat, and lacking emotional depth. You get exhausted watching Joe Dallesandro lounging about in the nick while other characters squabble about their dysfunctional relationships. It's an aimless meander from one bazaar scene to the next, amid a parade of weird white people, peeling off their clothes at the drop of a hat and indulging in exhibitionism, voyeurism, and trainspotting. In some respects, it's Jerry Springer without the audience and Jerry, but a little less restrained. If you like inarticulate weirdness, this collection is for you.
Summary of Paul Morrissey Collection (Flesh / Trash / Heat)
An icon of the Andy Warhol Factory and one of the most famous figures of the late 1960s and 1970s, Joe Dallesandro shot to fame in this landmark trilogy of underground filmmaking from acclaimed director Paul Morrissey. Raw, charismatic, and unabashed, his performances anchor these unflinching and often hilarious looks at life on the streets where hustling, conning, shooting up, loving, and bickering make up every memorable day.In Flesh, Joe stars as a dim and sweet-natured hustler who journeys from one client to the next in a quirky odyssey that goes from the clutches of an amorous artist to a pair of beauties including a young Patti D'Arbanville.
In Trash, Joe struggles to provide a living for his demanding girlfriend (Warhol favorite Holly Woodlawn), crossing back and forth between the gutter and the high life in a quest for happiness.
Then Joe hits Los Angeles as an unemployed former child star in Heat, a fast and funny look at fleeting fame where an affair with fallen star Sylvia Miles (Midnight Cowboy) results in hilarious complications.
Now restored and remastered with all-new extras, these masterworks of true independent cinema burn brighter than ever in these sensational new special editions, with an exclusive fourth bonus disc of additional extras!
