TOUCH ME IN THE MORNING Dir. Giuseppe Andrews, 1999 US, 80 min.
In this truly independent Coming-of-Age story from Troma, Giuseppe Andrews stars as Coney Island, a young man who is dealing with a lot of the issues facing today’s youth: divorce, unemployment, sexual inadequacy and a gigolo father who has just been released from prison.
Ever the optimist, Coney Island spends his days singing songs of hope to senior citizens and riding miniature broncos at his favorite playground. Pushed by his unfulfilled girlfriend to grow up, Coney Island turns to Daddy Bill (Bill Nowlin) for advice in the ways of love and embarks on a grotesque and wildly hilarious journey of self-discovery.

The Franco Files Presents:
LILIAN THE PERVERTED VIRGIN
(Lilian la virgen pervertida)
Dir. Jess Franco
(as Cliford Braun),
1984
Spain, 79 min.
It’s fitting that as soon as Spain lifted the ban on pornography,
Jess was the first through the hardcore gate with Lilian,
The Perverted Virgin.
It’s the 13th of the 19 films he’d do with Golden Productions,
so Lina Romay and Antonio Mayans are there of course,
but the star here is Katja Bienert,
who plays Lilian,
found on the beach by Mario (Mayans),
who listens to her tell the story of her abduction and torture at the hands of two wealthy perverts
(Romay, naturally, and Emilio Linder).
Betrayal, manipulation,
wigged-out drug scenes,
Jess as a drunk police official (again),
freaky stage acts
—
it’s got everything you’d hope for in a Franco film.
With an excellent score by Pablo Villa and some excellent cinematography by Juan Soler,
it’s an excellent introduction to Franco’s 80s classics.
WARNING: Hardcore pornography, including bondage.

SIGNAL Brooklyn, Bushwick: 260 Johnson Avenue,7-10pm
an affable and seemingly gullible American man in a Brazilian jail for drug trafficking,
recounts his jaw-dropping saga—a romance with an alluring and elusive Japanese-Colombian woman that went remarkably wrong.
This riveting tale of obsession and deception,
filled with images,
emails,
and video from Kirk’s computer is an offbeat,
provocative documentary for the Internet age.
