Pain and Pleasure
1969
Teaser Storyline for Pain and Pleasure In the sort of odyssey attempted by Leopold Bloom in Joyce's classic Ulysses, Sammy, a damaged wino, seeks escape from the intolerable pain of daily existence, his past ruin, his hurtful memories of his lost wife and daughter, his doubtful future, his hungry loneliness, in dreams - waking and sleeping dreams - and always supported and bolstered by the bottle where his dreams (and nightmares) began. In the alleys, streets, movie palaces, homes and in the dark lost places of his own mind, Sammy searches, sacrificing everything in his pursuit of pleasure and escape from pain. He dreams of nude dancers, he goes to erotic movies, he tries again to pick up a young blonde girl who painfully reminds him of his long lost wife. He mindlessly rapes a young girl in a warehouse when he is driven past control by his desires. He is in turn seduced by a long-legged, lonely, nympho wife of an aging man while the husband and the

wife's friend, a young girl, are away from a richly appointed home. Sammy finds release and escape for a while when he is sated by passion with the lustful wife. He sleeps with a doll that once belonged to his little daughter Amy who was taken from him by his wife because of his alcoholism. Stimulated by memory of lust and a pagan dance witnessed in a movie, Sammy returns to the nympho's home, finds she is gone, but the blonde girl he has been pursuing because of her resemblance to his lost Linda, arrives. He is thrilled to find he has learned where the blonde girl lives. Driven by memories of Linda, he attacks the blonde girl, even calling her Linda, so she cries in rage that her name is not Linda, but Amy. In horror, Sammy sees what his pursuit of pleasure has cost his wife and daughter in pain, and at this moment, unaware that Sammy is her father, Amy kills him by breaking his skull with a liquor bottle.
