John Lindsay - Karl Ordinez - original 16mm prints

[SWJ]

does anyone know of the thereabouts of original 16mm prints of shorts by Linbdsay/ordinez - Taboo films ( jolly hockey sticks, after school etc)
or even the original ORIGINAL print...

Does anyone know where these could be?
& If Lindsay is still alive ?

I think there could be a market to burn onto DVD from the best quality source material

A lot of original cine film was destroyed by Plod after raids on Soho cinemas showing these films. These loops are becoming rarer all the time. In time, these will become the 'Holy Grail' of UK Porn.

From 1968 to 1974 I lived 2 flats below John Lindsay in Swiss Cottage. I didn't realise 'til many years later what a famous film-maker he was.

Joe, do you have a copy of that documentary? I have seen snippets, but never all the programme. If ANYBODY has it if Joe cannot help, let me know.

[joe king]

No I don't have it, the prog was also repeated in 16 jan 1997 ch4 10pm

Simon Sheridan is also on the prog.

There is supposed to be some place that has got copies of every prog shown on tv (I don't know how far back they go)- I think the URL was posted but can't remember it.

Goes back 365 days, I tried to obtain Chelsea's games from Match of the Day from BBC for all of the 1990's and was politely told to 'piss off'

tend to agree with you guys, if john lindsay is still on the go he should receive a big, big mention from all the porn folk in the uk, whether they are viewers, producers, directors, stars - surely this guy was the master, until uncle ben, video and gonzo came along, does anybody know what happened to him, and was he actually British?? I have often heard references to him, via the history books of british porn, surely must be an interesting C4 documentary to be told, if he is still alive and kicking.
