| Review Summary and Plot Commentary about Up! |
|---|
UP! is a movie cowritten (the other writer being Roger Ebert !), produced and directed by Russ Meyer in 1976.
Adolph Schwartz is a nasty old man bearing a tremendous resemblance with Adolf Hitler. He's regularly serviced by Paul who has to feed Adolph's leaning for SM plays and new taste for young men. One day, Adolph is murdered in his bathtub, someone put a piranha in it. We are asked by Kitten Natividad, playing the Greek Choir in the movie, to discover the identity of the murderer. Is it Paul who works as a cook at Alice's Café or maybe Alice herself who lives a passionate lesbian love story with Gwendolyn, an attractive truck driver. And who is Margo Winchester, the gorgeous young woman who's just arrived in town ? She does have great karate skills and is forced to kill the no good Leonard Box after having been raped in the forest. And what role is playing Homer Johnson, the only cop in town, who witnessed Margo's crime and accepted to close his eyes ?
Iconoclastic and very funny. Another cult classic from Russ Meyer.
