I know early after arriving at the Ritz theater Spankys mom walks into a prop while walking around backstage. How ironic would it have been if it was the actual prop that Spanky placed in front of her after her dress was ripped off. Even more so if it lined up with her head sticking over the top of it like at the end. Just a thought.
shareThat was something I always thought about being a great idea they should have done.
shareI don't know if this has been mentioned anywhere so forgive me if it has.
Tonight I froze the last scene and enlarged it on my computer.
First off of the 1000's of times I have watched this scene, I guess my focus has been on the mom and prop, but tonight I noticed for the first time the back scenery of the woods or forest. ( I would love thoughts on this please).
As far as the prop:
You can clearly see cleavage showing 2 breasts with two huge nipples.
Now I also see what looks like s spread open vagina...
I am thinking to get by the censors, out of the breasts appear to be slender legs and feet.
I know its been stated that she is frozen looking at her skirt up in the rafters,
But her opened mouthed expression also resembles a subservient woman who is ready to orally please her man.
Thoughts
This is just what was posted last nite.No one ever mentioned the backdrop is a forest scene after the stage curtain has been raised. Ginserg says the mother act was taken out into nature when her dress is taken she is only a woman who is in her underwear once the prop goes into place she is no longer in her undies she is nude. That makes her the human animal nude and in the natural setting the forest.
Ginsberg states once the prop goes into place she is nude and actually nuder than nude as you said u can see the breasts and the outline of her open vagina on that prop.
He says she constantly is fighting Spanky's battles ,the 3 with the MC and also with Alfalfa. She is always opening her mouth and jumping in when the gang is shooting him up her mouth keeps opening but no words come out and u can see the MC looking on as she can't get words iut but her mouth is moving ,he is really enjoying watching her.Then when she is behind the prop her mouth is wide open but her tongue is still finally.
It's very interesting reating his book and discussing it with the others privately and on these boards but it is a tuff read and times he says some thing like the missing father figure then says the MC is certainly not the father figure as he is too old and bald to have been involved with Spanky's Mother but tgen goes about it and says they act like and old married couple fighting over the future if their son. Of course the MC has his way with her every single time.
Thanks Stooge
Yes I read the post from last night,,But I decided to see for myself the closing segment and decided to post what I saw and what came to my mind....
It so odd i never noticed the forest background for what is close to 60 years...
LOL
Guess what. No one else saw it either so don't feel bad. No one saw the 4 levels of humiliation each one more humiliating than the previous one. No one else saw the character of Spanky so different than he is in all the other shorts and lets his mom fight his battles for him.
Another couple of points you may never saw when the mother walks onto the stage wings Charlie Hall ,the stage hand who us also a writer walks into to her and tries to place a stage prop in front of her she gives a a quick smile and he gives her a smile.
Also o b e point he states the mother's dress is the prize something none of us believed was true but we watched it closely several times and now we are staring to believe it is true but not 100 pct sure to be honest?
