Melbourne ! Iโ€™m doing an in person q&a for my film on the 16th ๐Ÿฅฐ

HOW GOOD THOUGH

We need to form a girl gang with the cover art of this book on the back of our leather jackets!

It's tough times for everyone right now, but if you have the cash to spare you can support him via Brap on Bandcamp, or through his Patreon

โ€œIโ€™ve got a great marketing plan, weโ€™ll get the dumbest motherfucker in our industry, one that just nobody respects, and weโ€™ll have him say the most asinine thing possible and that will be our pull quote, itโ€™s surefire

And Carroll Baker has absolute and total old school giallo cred, at that!

The international language aka "Alex and Josh talking AGAIN about increases in divorce rates in the 1970s and 80s and how that impacted representations of masculinity in mainstream Hollywood cinema"
