There is great scope to expand the contents. I will try to collect more information and make this stub more useful. --Bhadani 15:32, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Piero Heliczer[edit]

In researching an article about Heliczer I'm seeing numerous claims that he appeared and even starred in Flaming Creatures. Just want to note that here, before I add him, in case there's some reason he's been omitted that I don't know about. Rosekelleher (talk) 15:00, 31 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Kenneth Jacobs[edit]

"Smith had observed the effects of using out-of-date film working on Ken Jacobs' Star Spangled to Death...."

"They seized the films and arrested Mekas, Ken Jacobs, Florence Karpf, and Jerry Sims...."

How does the first quoted sentence lead to the second? 71.233.90.196 (talk) 18:40, 24 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure what your exact question is, but Smith and Jacobs worked together on a few films. Jacobs and his partner Florence were working at the theater when the police shut it down. hinnk (talk) 16:21, 26 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
