Retrospective | BAD GIRLS GO TO HEAVEN
US 1974, D: Stephanie Rothman, A: Sarah Kennedy, Laurie Rose, Cassandra Peterson, 80’, English OV, DCP
Like its predecessors THE STUDENT NURSES (1970) and GROUP MARRIAGE (1973), WORKING GIRLS is a 1968-esque libertarian sex and relationship comedy that revolves around an ensemble of unequal women who come together to form a solidary community in the face of their personal circumstances. And, as is just as usual for Rothman’s film cosmos, there is a lot of contemporary atmosphere and local colour here: a sun-drenched Los Angeles of striptease nightclubs, huge advertising billboards and quintessentially American diners along motorways, a cinema of hot pants, wide collars, tie-dye shirts, all kinds of small-time crooks, dealers and weirdos.
