Together

About This Movie

Together (1971) dives into the complex landscape of sexual relationships in America through a mockumentary lens. It’s got this raw, almost voyeuristic vibe that makes you feel like you’re eavesdropping on intimate conversations. The pacing is a bit languid, letting scenes breathe and letting the awkwardness and humor play out. You'll notice the practical effects are minimal since the focus is more on the candid performances and real-life interactions of its subjects. It's distinct for its blend of documentary style with a narrative that doesn’t shy away from the uncomfortable truths of love and sex—like an unscripted exploration of societal norms that still feels relevant today.

This film is somewhat elusive in the collector's market, with original prints being hard to come by. It has a niche following due to its provocative subject matter and experimental style, often leading to discussions about its cultural impact. Various formats have surfaced over the years, but the early VHS releases are particularly sought after among collectors interested in 70s independent cinema.
