Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
This 1968 production from Andy Warhol's Factory found director Paul Morrissey still defining his style and particularly open to Warhol's own process of shooting extended takes with minimal editing. Factory star Joe Dallesandro plays a hustler working to earn money for his wife's girlfriend's abortion. The long trail of transvestites, drugs, and debauchery doesn't just drag a viewer down but rather adds up to a kind of transcendent curiosity about itself. Intelligent, well-constructed, and at times lyrical, this is one of the best of the Morrissey-Warhol collaborations. The cast includes a couple of actors in Warhol's orbit who later broke into mainstream movies and television, including Patti D'Arbanville. --Tom Keogh

Rating:  - "It's Boring."
What a difference 40 years makes. I suppose we all thought we were too too hip when we saw this film in 1968. After all Joe Dallesamndro was all of 20 with a perfect body that he keeps showing in this film. It must have been a first with all that frontal nudity although he does seem quite natural when he strips for us. I'll give him that. But unfortunately this movie doesn't hold up at all. One of the characters, when commenting on school, says "it's boring," a perfect statement about this film that ... Read More

Flesh
This is a film of the late sixties that was shot with a rather amaturess genere for the reason of the effect it would have on the audience. Its entire theme surrounds characters in the Big Apple in the era of transition during the late 60s - early 70s. The director has shown the ultimate conflicts in moral judgements in this country in this film! His play-off of the characters shows exactly the problems facing society in general. By tracing this one man's life, we get a small glimse at ... Read More
Rating:  - IT'S ALL ABOUT JOE
Of course the main reason to view this film is Joe Dallesandro. Why else would anyone look at it? It is interesting in a slice-of-life pseudo-documentary way. The same kind of thing you could have seen a few years ago on Primetime Live without the aggravation of Diane Sawyer following Joe around asking him ridiculous questions. The choppy editing and lack of sound in some sections will surely aggravate many or make you wonder if you have missed something. But i mean really, there is not a great intriguing ... Read More
Rating: - Stange but fun movie
Flesh is a strange but fun movie. It's a product of it's time and very charming. If you are a Joe Dallesandro fan it's a must. Lot's of him running around nude.
Rating: - Dallesandro Has A Beautiful Smile - Who Knew?
All I can say is, wow! Blame it on my having watched the Dallesandro movies in "reverse" - having viewed Blood for Dracula and Flesh for Frankenstein, I was prepared for another stone-faced portrayal by Dallesandro...the perpetual sneer worn over the rigid, blank expression that was Dallesandro's "trademark" in both films. Instead I was blown away by a fresh faced boy, with a beautiful smile, expressive face and dancing eyes. WOW! This film is a must for any Dallesandro fan.
