For Her Eyes Only
MEET THE FILMMAKER: Sunday February 5, 3.00pm. Join director Brian Jones for a rare screening of FOR HER EYES ONLY, followed by a Q&A.
Decades before Magic Mike and The Chippendales there was Crystal T's – the home of Melbourne's very own all-male nude review.
FOR HER EYES ONLY is a fascinating early 1980s documentary by filmmaker Brian Jones (Coming Of Age) that shows Melbourne at a turning point, shaking off the prudishness of the past to embrace a new sexual freedom that was sweeping the nation. Located in Brunswick, Crystal T's saw swathes of women of all ages attending an outrageous all-male review that would become the talk of the town. Featuring interviews with both giddy audience members and the performers themselves, it's an authentic and rare look at a part of our culture that has been all but forgotten.
“It’s certainly fun…a lovely time capsule to a pre-Priscilla era of innocence and heavy smoking,” - David Stratton.
