Whimsically Volatile

Anne Carlisle - the star and co-writer of LIQUID SKY - joins me and James St. James for an in-depth exploration of this pioneering film. One of the first films to explicitly depict & discuss pansexuality, androgyny & gender fluidity in any substantial way - it also serves as an essay on toxic masculinity, ingrained homophobia and the ingrained misogyny of both overground & underground culture.  LIQUID SKY’s hyper-stylized neon soaked aesthetic & aggressively bizarre, completely electronic score has continued to influence fashion, music and pop-culture in general since initial release in 1983. It’s also a science fiction picture. AND the male and female leads are played by the same person. PLUS... this film features the second and final role for mysterious cult actress Paula Sheppard (ALICE, SWEET ALICE). We find out what Paula was like, where she likely went and how she feels about her acting career now. Head over to ⁠⁠https://www.patreon.com/CraigAndFriends⁠⁠⁠ Snatch up ad-free & early ve
