This is an important Movie !!

I couldn't believe how this unrecognized unheralded film of the mid 1960s captured the sleaziness & the downfall of NYC during that time The photography is amazing.. the score capturers the early disco era... Sal Mineo is unbelievably sensuous, erotic, neurotic, as is Elaine Stritch who plays the Lesbian, Marian wonderful performances.. Juliet Prowse is good in this role..Plot is a bit confusing.. and why did they cast Jan Murray (great TV comic game show host of that era) in this role? Ill never know.... But as I stated before, this film captures the sleazy, unclean, dark, cold snowy sado masochistic, days of NYC in the mid 1960s when that city was on the decline.. Broadway might have been booming, Babs was on B'WAY live in Funny Girl, The Merm was still around. ETC .but the side streets, the crime, the sex shops were running abound..this film captures it all..worth seeing and or buying if it becomes .. available, Bravo ,Sal Mineo. Elaine Stritch, and the director...

Quiz
The print released on home video by Network is missing a few minutes of sleaze content. The original theatrical version has images of pornographic books and magazines, as well as explicit lobby cards displayed by a Times Square adult movie theater.

Blooper
During the first scene set at the discotheque, Juliet Prowse puts on a new record after we see the crowd dancing to the first song. However, minutes later, we see the crowd dancing to the first song again.

Citazioni
Lt. Dave Madden: Some are fetishists, some are sadists, some are masochists, then there are the simple voyeurs, the pediophiliacs, but even that's too neat, too much like rules. So we have the combinations. And I'm not talking about your uncle Charlie, who buys pin-up calendars, I mean the complicated pairing. The sado-masochist, the voyeur-masochist, the exhibitionists, the necrophiliacs.
Norah Dain: You seem to know a lot about these things.
Lt. Dave Madden: Someone should.

Versioni alternative
3 minutes of the film were cut following premiere showings, resulting in a 91-minute version which deletes some scenes of Sal Mineo working out and swimming at the gym where he encounters Juliet Prowse. The 2024 4K restoration of the film restores this material.
