14.09.2024 | DOUBLE AGENT 73 (US 1974, Doris Wishman)

Retrospektive | BAD GIRLS GO TO HEAVEN

US 1974, D: Doris Wishman, A: Chesty Morgan, Frank Silvano, Saul Meth, 73’, German version, 35mm

Outsider art of “cheap thrills”: DOUBLE AGENT 73 is associative pulp fiction, a loose sequence of agent and erotic film scenes – and not a suspense film in the classic sense. Classy however, is Chesty Morgan, a striptease dancer of Polish descent, with whom Wishman had already made a film the previous year with the telling title DEADLY WEAPONS: Morgan’s massive bust is also the centrepiece of the film in DOUGLE AGENT 73, far less an object of lust than a threat to all men who cross her path. If you let yourself in for that camp, which has an ardent admirer in John Waters, you are in for a fever dream of a eccentric low-budget film.
