Under The Tit

About This Movie

So, there's this film called 'Under The Tit,' though its year and director seem to be wrapped in mystery, which adds a layer of intrigue, don't you think? It’s a documentary that dives deep into Sandy Daley's cult classic, 'Robert Having His Nipple Pierced.' The four young filmmakers really immerse themselves in the vibrant artistic pulse of New York City, capturing the raw essence of hope and creativity among emerging artists. The pacing feels organic, almost like you’re wandering through a gallery with them, taking in the atmosphere. The interviews with Robert Mapplethorpe, David Croland, and Patti Smith provide real depth. It’s like peeling back layers of a rich tapestry of art and life.

This film has a certain rarity that might appeal to niche collectors, especially those interested in avant-garde documentaries. Its obscurity contributes to its allure, while the connections to the art scene of the 70s make it a conversation starter. Formats are limited, with few releases surfacing over the years, which makes it a bit of a treasure hunt for those seeking it out.
