Excerpt from Interview with Doris Wishman |
|
R/S: How do you feel about what youÕre doing? Because traditionally, a lot of men would say that women should not direct sexploitation films. DORIS WISHMAN: You say Ōsexploitation,Ķ but thatÕs not quite true because these days those films are not considered sexploitation. Double Agent and Deadly Weapons havenÕt any sex. The Amazing Transplant has very little sex. So theyÕre not sexploitation. Anyway, as far as sex is concerned, men and women are on the same level, so that has no bearing! What IÕm doing and what other women are doing—anybody can do if they have that talent, it has nothing to do with sex. But I donÕt feel that women can do everything that men can do in the business world. Especially where prowess is concerned. But anyhow, I have other problems; IÕm not interested in womenÕs lib. IÕm really not. R/S: Are you married? DW: Not right now. R/S: YouÕre pretty much on your own? DW: Oh yes, very much so. I like it. R/S: What were your budgets like? When you did The Amazing Transplant how much did that cost? DW: That was only about $250,000, I think. Which is considered very low, but
thatÕs because I do everything myself, and I donÕt take an actual salary, I just take what I need.
