FLESH A Paul Morrissey Retrospective

Description

Joe Dallesandro plays a hustler whose wife asks him to get $200 for her lover’s abortion. This leads to a series of encounters with a bizarre mix of urban oddballs. He returns home to find his wife more interested in the pregnant girlfriend than in him. “Morrissey’s debut feature is often outrageous, sometimes funny, and always profoundly sad beneath its nonchalant surface.” -Kevin Thomas, Los Angeles Times.
