Jack Smith – Flaming Creatures (1963)
Viewer advisory: Nudity and sexual content

---

This legendary film has been the subject of numerous books, a documentary,
an exhibit at the Museum of Modern Art, and even a Supreme Court case.
Long unavailable, we’re showing the first newly struck print in decades of
this mesmerizing, carnivalesque, and campy celebration of underground
filmmaking.

“At once primitive and sophisticated, hilarious and poignant, spontaneous and
studied, frenzied and languid, crude and delicate, innocent and jaded, richly
perverse and gloriously impoverished. Had Jack Smith produced nothing other
than this amazing artifice, he would still rank among the great visionaries of
American film.” – Village Voice
