First, I want to thank Hari Jost at the Wisconsin Union Directorate Film Committee for her work updating the WUD Film Google Calendar feed that the Madison Film Forum in turn uses for our Alternative Screening Calendar.
On our end, the great thing about the feed is that it updates as titles are added. I look at the feed quite often, but today I noticed for the first time a title that I wish I could catch this Wednesday. There’s always something going on over at the Marquee, so be sure to check their schedule regularly.

Laura is a bisexual nymphomaniac who often carries on with her housekeeper Andrea. When Carlos sees her bathing nude one day, he falls in love with the vivacious vixen. She willingly gives in to his amorous advances, warning him she may never be able to be faithful to just one person. The two are married, but Laura continues to select a series of lovers to cure her insatiable desire for sex. The repair man is her first conquest, then she takes to the street for more willing lovers. Laura and Carlos fly to see a New York psychiatrist to cure her affliction, but only advancing age may finally cure her need for physical love. She picks up more lovers on Broadway and considers suicide as the only way out in this exploitation feature punctuated by graphic nudity (MSN Entertainment).
