JMcAndrew sends this one in: “There’s a new Disney Snow White movie in the theater today and although I haven’t seen it yet I don’t think it’s going to be X-Rated. Also I want to point out that if you look really closely under the banner that says “X-rated” you can see the feet of the dwarves who are apparently participating in an orgy. … I think Ziggy himself is a “little person” so maybe he is just going to see it out of a sense of solidarity.”
Comics I Don't Understand 
The more I look at it, the more lewd it becomes. It kind of looks like Snow White has her arms behind her head and is grinning in ecstasy. The word ‘release’ isn’t helping matters. And those ‘lights’ above ‘Now Showing’ remind me of crude drawings of… well, I’ll let you figure it out. The 70s sure were a wild time.
At least this one gave work to real little people rather than CGI versions…
Their names needed to be changed to Sleazy, Gropey, etc. I expect Happy’s name was kept intact.
IIRC, that was around when there was a brief fad of “artistic” X-Rated movies that respectable people could see in the theater.
This was probably a reaction to Fritz the Cat, an animated, pornographic movie that had a theater release in August of ’72.
Andrew Millar likely has it.
Fritz the Cat, of course, was an X-rated underground comic strip before it was an X-rated animated picture. Ralph Bakshi rather famously produced the Fritz film, but the comic strip was created by Robert “R. Crumb” Crumb. Ziggy’s Tom Wilson was quite familiar with Crumb (and likely Fritz, by extension), he used to be his boss! Wilson personally brought Crumb into his humorous cards department at American Greetings after seeing his work elsewhere in the company and even continued to send Crumb freelance work after he left American Greetings and was launching Fritz (among other comics).
Originally X was just supposed to be another rating level. A few movies like Midnight Cowboy were originally released with that rating. It wasn’t copyrighted or trademarked or whatever the appropriate protection, so adult films started using it. They changed the R rating later and reissued ones like Midnight Cowboy.
I used to pass by such a theater and usually got a good laugh at the slightly altered titles for some of their movies. One of the best-known was Flesh Gordon.
Okay. I told husband about this page of posts. On Friday nights we have “Friday Night Midnight Movies” (since start of Covid). We watch old and odd movies as we used to at the local art cinema (The Mini Cinema) when we were dating and into early in our marriage on Friday nights (after our college retail jobs were done for the night). So we just looked up and found “Fritz the Cat” and he is going to go back and download it for a Friday night midnight movie.
(On Saturday nights we have “Saturday night date night movie” as we have gone to the movies every Saturday night – short of terribly bad weather) on our weekly date, again, until Covid came along and it also became a movie on TV date.)
