Brick Archival Streaming Series #13: The Hopelessly Hopeless Story of All Good Girls

Fringe and Fur

October 8

Free

WE ARE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE THE THIRTEENTH INSTALLMENT OF THE BRICK ARCHIVAL STREAMING SERIES – THE HOPELESSLY HOPELESS STORY OF ALL GOOD GIRLS

The Brick Theater proudly invites you to The Brick YouTube Channel for the video premiere of The Hopelessly Hopeless Story of All Good Girls on Thursday, October 8th at 8pm EST.

The Hopelessly Hopeless Story of All Good Girls is a psycho-sexual closet drama that paints an intimate portrait of the inner lives of Woman of the House and Woman who live together in a ranch house, trapped in Colorado, and ruled by their inherited domestic rituals. They go to the store, they dress up in fancy clothes, they smoke cigarettes, they sink into depression, they dread the phone’s ringing, and they drink very tall glasses of whole milk. All is revealed when they are visited by the Woman Next Door. 

Merging film clips, movement, and scripted dialogues with texts from Adrienne Rich, Gloria Steinem, Julie London, Judy Garland, and Andy Warhol in the tradition of Kathy Acker, the characters’ identities blur as they seek a more fulfilling way to exist. 

The ranch house, both a solace and a prison, serves as a setting to explore dread of the domestic, empty suburban lifestyles, and the violent alienation just beneath the surface of American culture.

From Allen Frame: “Incredible mood piece, a stylish psychological martini noir, channeling Mulholland Drive, Carol, and early color Cindy Sherman.”
