Kustom Kar Kommandos

Against the perfectly pink backdrop two handsome early 60s greasers, one in baby-blue jeans and shirt, the other all in white, lean over a custom-made car, starring into its glaringly shining surface and glistening engine parts as if, like two Narcissi, they were studying the beauty of their own faces more than the gears and pistons of the awesome machine before them. The Ford Foundation granted Anger $10,000 for the production of this film. But obviously he spent so much on the Kar and the technicolor lighting that he only had enough left for 3 minutes of what was to have been a feature-length film focusing on the role of cars as fetish objects among young American males.
