THE TELEPHONE BOOK, 1971, 80 min. Dir. Nelson Lyon. Sarah Kennedy stars in this classic X-rated sex comedy about a girl who falls in love with the world's greatest obscene phone caller. Once dismissed by mainstream film critics as obscene and pornographic, this film is now being hailed as a missing masterpiece and has not been seen in Los Angeles since it played at the Vogue Theatre on Hollywood Boulevard in 1971. Costars include a young Jill Clayburgh and William Hickey. With Star Trek's Roger C. Carmel, The Fugitive's Barry Morse and Andy Warhol regulars Ultra Violet, Geri Miller and Ondine. Plus, "Merv Bloch Trailer Show." Rare and classic trailers created by Merv Bloch featuring, THE TENANT, STAR TREK, THE ELEPHANT MAN, FRIDAY THE 13TH, THE WARRIORS, Woody Allen films and more! Q&A in between films with producer Merv Bloch, Writer/director Nelson Lyon and animator Len Glasser.
