“This is a strange one: a nearly unwatchable train wreck of a movie you need eyes in the back of your head to safely watch, lest you get jumped by a psychologically crippled hipster who has snuck up behind you in the dark movie theater, hammer in hand. I haven’t had the pleasure because I’ve only seen it on YouTube. So here’s to new experiences at Anthology Film Archives. I’ve heard the endeavor bankrupted Norman Mailer, and honestly, that’s the realest definition of independent film I can think of. As a character in my own THE MISCONCEIVED says about MAIDSTONE: ‘You can’t make that movie anymore,’ which is slightly inaccurate since Mailer couldn’t make it in the first place.” – James N.
