Overview

A guilty pleasure of the mid-20th century, pulp fiction magazines were often defined less by their contents than by their provocative covers. This documentary explores the shocking art that brought life to these lurid publications. Filmmaker Jamie McDonald delves into the collection of art historian Robert Lesser, shedding light on this nearly forgotten art form and the ways it impacted popular culture.
