Resurrection of Eve
1973, dir. Jon Fontana & Artie Mitchell
“Marilyn Chambers... from Behind the Green Door to the Performance of her career!”
With ocean waves crashing below, Eve (Marilyn Chambers) sits by herself atop a cliff. Suddenly a man approaches her; the man who will change her life forever. Her memories of childhood torment slowly give way to the optimism of young adulthood and a chance at happiness with successful DJ Frank Paradise (Matthew Armon), but everything changes in a near-fatal instant when a car crash leaves Eve disfigured. As her new face emerges and her scars start to fade, she must now accept that those who seemed to love her may not have had her own desires and best interests in mind.
Following the sensational success of Behind the Green Door, the Mitchell Brothers felt they needed to create something even bigger and more meaningful as a follow-up. With regular cinematographer Jon Fontana taking on co-directing duties with Artie Mitchell, Resurrection of Eve was another instant smash hit, infused with pointed commentary on race and women's liberation.
