Join The Deuce this June as we celebrate Fathers AND Pride with LOLLY-MADONNA XXX! A buncha backwoods boys just tryin’ to do their moon-shinin’ pappies proud anyway they can… Tennessee hick-households headed by scenery and sandwich chewing Rod Steiger and tight-lipped taciturn-y Robert Ryan embroiled in a Hatfield-McCoy-type feud!
A prankishly-penned letter leads to mistaken-identity kidnapping and an escalation of already tenuous tensions! With some Elvis impersonating and crossdressing!! A try at hopping on the “hicksploitation” bandwagon from major-studio MGM with a script by Sue Grafton adapted from her own obscure early pot-boiler… the “XXX” of the title being not a rating but rather the sign-off of the previously mentioned prankishly-penned letter as in: “love and kisses”…
This hillbilly hogwash hijacked Manhattan’s “happening” E. 59th Street – premiering at the East 59th St I & II Theater where “we think seeing movies is one of the really great scenes in New York. And we intend to make that scene as exciting as possible…” Just like those dopes at The Deuce!!
