ARCHIVAL PRESENTATION:

ROOMMATES  (New 2K restoration!)

(Chuck Vincent, 1982; 89 min., United States)

Joan, Sherry, and Billie couldn’t be more different. Joan (Veronica Hart) is a small-town girl trying to make it as an actress in the big city; Sherry (Kelly Nichols) is a fashion model whose Achilles’ heels are easy men and easier drugs; and Billie (Samantha Fox) is a former high-class escort who’s left that world behind for a career in TV production. Their lives become interwoven when Joan and Sherry move into Billie’s luxury apartment as roommates. Living together, the three women develop a close bond and a love for each other that they never thought possible, learning from their respective successes, failures, traumas, joys, loves, and heartbreaks.*

One of the most critically acclaimed and awarded hardcore features ever produced, Golden Age auteur Chuck Vincent’s Roommates offers career-best performances from its all-star cast–including stars Veronica Hart (Pandora’s Mirror, Boogie Nights), Kelly Nichols (The Toolbox Murders), and Samantha Fox (Her Name Was Lisa)–plus supporting players Jerry Butler, Jamie Gillis, Bobby Astyr, Jack Wrangler, Gloria Leonard, and Ron Hudd. Astutely scripted by Vincent and Rick Marx, who took inspiration from the real lives of their leading ladies, this thought-provoking and sobering drama ranks as one of the last true hardcore “crossover films,” lovingly presented in this new 2K restoration!

*Note: Contains scenes of rape and sexual violence.

*No one under 18 admitted.*
