‘NUTS!’ to get theatrical release

Posted on by

Grab some.

Coming June 22nd, to select theaters, NUTS!

Mixing hand-drawn animated reenactments, interviews, archival footage, and a highly unreliable narrator, NUTS! traces Brinkley’s rise from poverty and obscurity to the heights of celebrity, wealth, and influence.

Inventive and wildly fun, NUTS! recounts the mostly-true story of John Romulus Brinkley, a Kansas doctor who in 1917 discovered that he could cure impotence by transplanting goat testicles into men. From there, the story only gets more bizarre (the trailer is below, and the first five seconds features two goats fucking in a field…I’m in!)

NUTS! will have a 2-week engagement June 22 – July 5 at Film Forum, 209 W. Houston St. (West of 6th Ave.), with screenings daily at 12:30, 2:20, 4:15, 6:10, 8:00, and 9:50.
