New York Dolls - All Dolled Up
In the early 70's, rock photographer Bob Gruen and his wife Nadya purchased a portable video recorder. In a period of three years they shot over 40 hours of New York Dolls footage. Now for the first time ever this footage is unveiled. This feature length documentary captures the band during early performances in New York at Kenny's Castaways and Max's Kansas City, then follows the Dolls on their tour of the west coast, including footage from the Whisky A Go Go, the Real Don Steele Show, Rodney Bingenheimer's E Club and much more. Intercut with revealing interviews, backstage banter and late night debauchery, this is THE definitive document of the New York Dolls.

WHAT ABOUT ME portays the gradual deterioration of Lisa Napolitano (Rachel Amodeo) a young women forced to exist on the streets, intermingling with the outcasts of society. Along the way she encounters a shell-shocked Vietnam veteran, Nick (Richard Edson); a nihilistic East Village, Tom (Nick Zedd); and a sympathetic good samaritan, Paul (Richard Hell). WHAT ABOUT ME was filmed in black and white on location in Tompkins Square Park and the Lower East Side. Gregory Corso, Judy Carne, Johnny Thunders, Jerry Nolan and Dee Dee Ramone appear in addition to the homeless residents of the park. The soundtrack includes music by Johnny Thunders.
