Heavy Petting

Last Minute Sales & Specials

An entertaining and sometimes salacious exploration of the sexual morals of the 50s through the eyes of a generation that lived through the Sexual Revolution, "Heavy Petting" features famous baby boomers - including musician David Byrne, performance artist Spalding Grey, comedian Sandra Bernhard, radical activist Abbie Hoffman, and poet Allen Ginsberg - as they candidly and hilariously recall their sexual coming-of-age in intimate interviews. Joyously campy and refreshingly carefree, "Heavy Petting" blends hilarious but unbelievable footage of unhelpful sex ed videos with classic film footage and interviews about cringe-worthy moments in their younger sexual lives, dissecting eternal sexual myths and mysteries along the way.
