Flesh and Trash and being thirteen




When I was thirteen my father gave me cinema tickets/vouchers to go and see Andy Warhol's Flesh and Trash. From then on my teenage fantasies revolved around Joe Dallesandro including a few others that I will not mention in this post.
He turned me on, that smoothe long hair and lean body. Oh Man!
I am greatful that my dad had such a good idea for a birthday present or I would have missed out in my fantasy life for years to come probably.
Okay that was in Stockholm and in those days anyway, the 70's, very few cineams showed films like that made by artists.
I don't know if he knew what the films were about, but I do remember he included a cute note accompanying the gift, a funny little quip about less trash and more flesh or something like that.
I looked at some photos of Joe D. again today and I still find him beautiful.
Really hot. Delicious.
