Electrocute your Stars

Synopsis Film Information Screenings Press Compilations

“You always have to be careful, you always have to have the shower backward in order to see the water, which means you better watch out, or you might electrify or electrocute your stars. You know what I mean, by having the light falling into the tub. Luckily, I was young enough - or foolish enough - to not worry about that. So I used to put on the thing on - I forget what – well, on the shower rack. I would clip on the clamp light, you know, and everything worked out OK by the end. If the fates are with you, you know, they have to direct the picture. If they are against you, the actors will be electrocuted! It’s horrible, horrible.”

This is a dream-portrait of George Kuchar, traveling through snow confetti, strobe flashes and artificial wind as he describes his weather diaries. And then George joins Janet Leigh in the shower. Wearing a red raincoat and a shower cap, reading comic books and blowing bubbles, he laughingly describes his bathing rituals and the making of his film, Hold Me While I’m Naked. A companion film to Bird, Bath and Beyond, a portrait of George’s twin brother Mike Kuchar.
