Many great moments in #thedayofthelocusts- a hanky panky Hollywood party, sexually charged tequila drinking contest, evangelist stage show, grand Waterloo set disaster, bloody cockfights, the riot & mayhem at the premiere of DeMille's Buccaneers. It’s visually spectacular- feigning that old soft Hollywood look to the maximum exaggeration, matching its ambitious crazy script. Schlesinger was much edgier filmmaker than everyone gave him credit for. #karenblack #donaldsutherland #johnschlesinger
