1964139221California: Art Theatre Guild / Eve Productions 1964. Original black-and-white program for the 1964 film printed for the Art Theatre Guild. The Art Theatre Guild ATG began in 1961 as an independent agency distributing films mostly Japanese rejected by major studios. The company operated until the 1980s with theaters in Arizona California Colorado Illinois Kentucky Massachusetts Missouri New Mexico Ohio and Tennessee. <br/><br/>The first of Meyer's "noir" cycle 1964-1965 or "Gothic" period as Meyer puts it a series of sexploitation films shot in black-and-white powerful psycho-sexual female characters male impotence and a serious dramatic plot involving less of the "nudie" filmmaking style so prominent in the director's early films. Other films in his "Gothic" period include "Mudhoney" 1965 "Motorpsycho!" 1965 and the epic and legendary "Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! " 1965. "Fanny Hill" 1964 snuck in right after "Lorna" although that film is generally left out of the "Gothic" period. <br/><br/>"Lorna" was written by James Griffith who stars as the Preacher narrator of the film and stars Lorna Maitland as a voluptuous sexually unfulfilled newlywed. Her husband Jim Rucker works in a salt mine all day and studies all night giving Lorna too much time to herself. One day while Lorna skinny-dips in a nearby river an escaped convict Bradley rapes her in the reeds. The vile act could otherwise have been exploited perhaps comically by Meyer but here the scene acts as a catalyst for one repressed woman's sexual awakening. Lorna invites the convict into her home while her husband is gone prompting Jim's coworkers among them the underrated Hal Hopper to tease him about Lorna's infidelity. Things take a bitter fatal turn when Jim returns home to discover Lorna and her object of desire. <br/><br/>5.5 x 8.5 inches folded once as issued.
