Program Notes 1995 WHO IS DORIS WISHMAN AND WHY ARE HER SEXPLOITATION FILMS SO ODD AND ORIGINAL? CURATED AND PRESENTED BY PEGGY AHWESH Friday, February 24, 1996—Roxie Cinema, 311716th St. Nude on the Moon (1 962) Double Agent (1914) Saturday, February 25, 1996—Artists Television Access, 992 Valencia Bad Girls Go To HeU (1 965) A Taste of Flesh (1967) "Doris Wishman made 25 films for the soft core porn circuit all of which are a rare blend of the prurient, the tacky, and the bizarre. Starting in 1960 with nudist camp pictures, Wishman proceeded with rough sex play an lots of lingerie, then in the 1970s used gimmicks such as killer breasts, penis transplants and transgender operations as vehicles for her films. The stories are wacky and weird with a seedy underlining of the true fear of and hostility towards women." —Peggy Ah wesh poSSt5SEt> VV»TH SEX.. V 19
