 Item — Box: 2

Scope and Contents

Publisher: SECS Press, Los AngelesPhoto Illustrated (color/b&w)"Sex Education Clinical Series vol. XVI" [contains glossary of film lingo in back, bibliography, possibly not Ed Wood, book discussions include set design, cinematography, gay films, S&M films, and art films, "‘Flaming Creatures’ is another example of underground invasion of the stag market. The film’s climactic cunnilingual rape scene is expressed with calculated crudity and very primitive photography." Also discusses Warhol amongst less pretentious pornography. "Maybe a new sexuality is upon us. Sort of a good-natured narcissism in which sex is a public demonstration whose feelings are best relished by the participant s later on...In other words, human confrontation (peace and love) has replaced human copulation. Sex as passion seems almost non-existent."] Gerhson Legman quote
