A time capsule of baby boomer nostalgia

I was lucky enough to be in attendance at the New Beverly Cinema in Los Angeles Ca. for a very rare screening of The Movie Orgy on April 22nd 2008. It was shown on the last night of the Joe Dante festival, Dante's Inferno, two weeks of films programmed by the famed director. In 1968 Joe Dante and producer Jon Davison, then college students, spliced this massive collection of film and television bits together and toured college campuses with The Movie Orgy. It was a four and a half hour bombardment of imagery from television, movies, old serials, news programs, musical performances, etc., to form a pop culture explosion of pre-1968 baby boomer nostalgia. It was a lot of fun, truly the most entertaining cinematic experience I ever had. For someone like me that was born around the time this film was playing the college circuit, it was a chance to watch the influences and yearnings of an entire generation before me splayed out in a bouillabaisse of cinematic insanity. I loved it.

Black & White clips of nostalgic 50's & 60's TV

I saw the "SCHLITZ MOVIE ORGY" at the University of Wisconsin when I was a TV & Film major around 1977. It was projected outdoors and the students brought blankets to spread on the lawn. The film consisted of commercials and cult TV series and B movies. The editing was done as to unite unrelated shots to create humor. Sound was also done this way as well. I found most of the humor in the dialog spoken by the actors. A typical line of dialog would be like: "Yes Billy...You too can get the froppy top through a Barters department store".Billy: Wow We Captain Jimmy" The dated perfect - press clothes and the simplistic set design added to the corny-ness.The film was a bit too long once the corny-ness eventually wore off on the audience. ...but the outdoor presentation on a warm and humid summer night made it truly an experience I'll never ever forget !
