11 - Ask Any Buddy's Elizabeth Purchell
Manage episode 334375255 series 3303733
Hosts: Jon Dieringer & C. Spencer Yeh
We speak to queer film historian, archivist, filmmaker, programmer, writer (and occasional Screen Slate contributor) Elizabeth Purchell while she was in town to present a Rosa von Praunheim retrospective. We talk about the pioneering queer German filmmaker before doing a deep dive into adult films: the history, the culture of collecting, tracking down rare films, bringing smut to Letterboxd, and why you hear Pink Floyd and see the same public bathroom in every gay porn film from the 70s.
