The Savage Eye

In 1959, a trio of outsider filmmakers wrote, produced, edited and directed the 'dramatized documentary' that San Francisco Cinematheque calls "a masterpiece of verité cinema": Adrift and bitter after her recent divorce, a woman (Barbara Baxley of NORMA RAE and NASHVILLE) confronts the grim realities of existence amongst the poetic grotesqueries of urban Los Angeles.
