Walking On Water Wasn't Built in a Day 1971

Shot at the first Earth Day in 1970, this new release features Allen Ginsberg reflecting on the state of American culture and society at the end of the 60s. In April 1970 the first Earth Day in Philadelphia was actually a week of celebrations for Mother Earth. This film was shot in and around the city, with cameo appearances and observations by the likes of Terry Southern, Jerry Rubin, mayor John Lindsay, and Wavy Gravy. But the film features Allen Ginsburg, both at the main event on Belmont Plateau and during a van ride across Pennsylvania, in which he riffs on American culture and society, at a meal at HoJo's and reading a poem on the banks of the Susquehanna. The talk is of polarization and the battle for the soul of America. Fifty years later, the argument goes on.

The documentary is a record of a marriage ceremony that took place in April 1971 and was performed in accordance with Ainu traditions at the request of the young bride. There were two hurdles to overcome in the realization of the ceremony: first, a group of Ainu had to be convinced, who were against a revival of the tradition. Secondly, there were only a few members of the community who knew the details of the ceremony at all, since most of them had already been celebrating a wedding in their own style for over 80 years.

"In his first venture into serious ballet, Pat Rocco presents Brian Reynolds in a soul-searching story of birth, life, and love. With exceptionally beautiful choreography by Lynn MacMurrey, we see Brian "being born" in an array of multi-colored patterns, finally bursting forth into life by discovering himself alone on top of a mountain. Upon seeing himself for the first time in a clear mountain pool, he becomes keenly aware of his loneliness and ventures forth in search of love. Dancing nude up and down streets, he finally comes upon Erik Carlson. Immediately the scene changes to an all black background as the two perform a pas de deux of love and lovemaking that must be seen to be truly appreciated. This is the first known nude ballet performed by two males that has ever been presented on the screen - and it promises to be one of the most successful films to ever come from Pat Rocco's Bizarre Productions."
