Title: 1960's cult classic
Review: Dennis Hopper has not been so sweet since.This is one of my favorite films. 1960's Venice Beach, a young sailor played by Dennis Hopper falls in love with a sideshow mermaid named 'Mora' ( Linda Larsen.)I was shown this film two years ago in London when I was in a play called "Babalon" at the John Guilgud Theater. I played Marjorie Cameron, widow of Jack Parsons, infamous Californian magician and protege of Alistair Crowley. The real 'Cameron' has a cameo in this film as a sea-priestess who haunts Mora. Her character gives the psychological mystery a supernatural possibility.Lots of carnival imagery, Tarot readings, carousel horses, jazz, beach, moonlight and an intriguing story. Beautifully photographed in black and white.. .what I call silver...
