If you're a Nicholas Ray completist, then you know that there are two movies he made in the 70s that are totally unfindable and have been rarely shown....
This is one of them : the dutch collective softcore movie from 1973, Wet dreams...
This collection of shorts was impulsed by a wealthy dutch person asking many directors to shot a few mns on the subject of "wet dreams".... Some of these shorts were collected and assembled in this movie, and were then issued in 1973...
French businessman Francis Mishkind, owner of the Alpha theaters and distribution circuit, acquired it and released it in Paris back then....
Mischkind is the man behind all those recent triple feature porn french dvds of the blue one label...His 30 years carreer made him a key figure in french porn prod beofre video replaced 35 mm films... (some important movies such as "Mes nuits avec Alice, Penelope,....", Talking pussy and so on....)
It was stamped "art house" in 1974 then x rated in 1975, then re art house only in 1982 in France.....
Directors include Ray, Lasse Braun (as Falcon Stuart) , and Dusan Makavejev (as Sam Rotterdam).....
This movie is (well, was...) extremely rare and has been shown recently only in Nick Ray retrospectives in cinematheques....
As far as I know, this movie has never been released on a french vhs, and i don't know where that theatrical print comes from (private collection ?)...I found it via ebay and then ripped the 3 gigs dvd r into a smaller file...Quality is not that bad, considering what it has been through (years and encoding...)
I have tried to locate this film for more than 15 years, and since yesterday, i can watch it...
I hope you will enjoy; it's definitely not a masterpiece but is worth the look, especially for some impressive cinematography and visual ideas....
Don't bother too much for the dialogue, you know it's not the strong point.
Most of the dreams are without dialogues so french audio shouldn't bother you...
