Monday, November 17 at 7:30 PM Wrangler: Anatomy of an Icon (Jeffrey Schwarz, USA, 2008, 82 min)
Before Jeff Stryker and Michael Lucas, Jack Wrangler was the number one name in gay porn and his wild, unpredictable career and life is recounted in this cant-miss documentary. With piercing blue eyes, unruly blond hair, a chiseled physique and cocky swagger, Jack Wrangler was the king of 70s gay porn. Forging a gay sexual revolution, he wasnt the typical object of homoerotic desire but an intelligent, full-bodied, self-confident stud. Exulted for his 80-plus adult films, the openly gay superstar even conquered the straight adult world and legitimate theater. And off-screen his life was equally sensational at 33 he married 55-year-old songstress Margaret Whiting. Packed with rare footage, celebrity interviews from fans from Chi Chi La Rue to Marc Shaiman to Bruce Vilanch, and witty commentary by Wrangler himself, this is an unfiltered portrait of an iconoclast who broke all the rules. Preceded by Steam (Damien Rae, UK, 2008, 3 min) A buffed hunk gets ready to party and The Window (Philippe Gosselin, USA, 2008, 6 min) NY Premiere. Three men discover the pleasure of showing the world what they're made of.
