Pier Groups ~ 8:00 PM, 18+ Only!!!

  • 4 Star Theater 2200 Clement Street San Francisco, CA, 94121 United States (map)

This historically significant Arch Brown classic focuses on sex at LGBTQ landmark the NYC piers, which served as a popular gay cruising locale and queer congregating space until its demolition.

This film predicts the fate of the piers in its premise: a presumably straight engineer (Johnny Kovacs) is sent to inspect them for a demolition company. His neighbor, well-endowed Keith Anthoni (star of Catching Up), is also headed to the piers, but for a day of freewheeling sexual adventures.

As Kovacs attempts to do his job, he continuously observes the ever-present hookups of Anthoni and countless other clones (with heavy emphasis on oral). The anonymous encounters – raunchy, tender, enthusiastic – build up to a kinky, climactic foursome with a touch of bondage! Kovacs’ reaction to the sexual activity all around him is ambiguous – at times quietly comedic, but also lending the film a constant air of intrigue. The film’s nuanced tonal range also encompasses the fun and excitement of cruising and an anticipatory wistfulness brought in by its awareness of the impermanence of its setting.

Beautiful photography of the now-gone piers makes up the majority of this outstandingly classic, capturing and immortalizing a particular time and place in gay culture. A hot and horny cast and exciting soundtrack (featuring original music by David Earnest, who also scored Brown’s The Night Before, along with exceptionally inspired and well-placed song selections) cap off this true gem of a film!
This event is 18 and up only!!!
