Peter Tork, July 1967.

Presumably, no look at the 55th anniversary of The Monkees’ 1967 summer tour would be complete without the tale of the almost-cast-moment courtesy of the Plaster Casters.

“There [Peter] was playing the grand piano, totally naked.” - Cynthia Plaster Caster, 1989

“He was so cute — and he looked damn good!” - Cynthia Plaster Caster, 2004

More details under the “read more” cut.

“There was that time in July ‘67 with the Monkees. Oh, those dumb Monkees. They were in the lobby of the hotel and there was a lot of security around. Getting upstairs was going to be a problem, they thought. But the Monkees had heard about the Plaster Casters and, oh, yes, they wanted to see this, they did, and they sent down for them. ‘We approached Davy Jones and he said “yeh, it would be great, you could have duplicates made and sell them in stores.” But Davy went into the other room and got Peter Tork, brought him out with nothing on, he did, and said “Okay, here.” And there were about thirty people around, some of the Buffalo Springfield were there and oh, it was a scene. ‘Bright one over here,‘ Rennie [Cynthia Plaster Caster] flips her hand toward Lisa, ‘takes hold of his rig and and starts hand-jobbing him. They’re all sitting around waiting for me to do something. I grabbed his rig too. We both had our hands on it. Somebody got on the piano and started playing Lovely Rita Meter Maid. It was — like a movie! Then Dewey Martin of the Springfield takes off his pants and drags me over to the couch — too much! Later Rennie [Cynthia] got up and went into the kitchen. Opening the can of alginates she cut her hand severely on the metal strip. There was blood all over the place and they had to tourniquet her. Then they all got mad and went to bed. They’re so stupid. The Mon-keeees!’” - The Realist, issue no. 84, November 1968

“We were sitting outside the Monkees’ hotel. One of the roadies saw the suitcase outside and had us brought up to the room. We were going to cast Peter Tork, who was notorious for walking around naked. There he was playing the grand piano, totally naked, and Buffalo Springfield were also hanging out, except for Neil Young. I was about to open the can of dental alginates which I didn’t know how to mix, and I split my middle finger almost in half. Luckily for me, because I didn’t know what I was doing. [Micky] Dolenz personally tourniqueted my finger. So much for The Monkees.” - Cynthia Plaster Caster, Q, September 1989

“[Micky] Dolenz told me [‘60s groupies] the Plaster Casters took a bigger penis mold of Peter Tork than of Jimi Hendrix.” - Nardwuar, The Vancouver Sun, July 4, 1992

“I tried to cast Peter during the time I had discovered dental mold and I didn’t know how to use it. Just as I was opening one [of] the can[s] — it was like an old-fashioned Planters’ Peanut type can — I cut my finger on the edge and cut it so bad it wouldn’t stop bleeding, and [Micky] Dolenz had to tourniquet my middle finger. I should probably have gone to the hospital, but it all went well with the finger. No cast of Peter, though. I never really got to see what he was capable of. He really liked being naked. He was so cute — and he looked damn good!” - Cynthia Plaster Caster, rockconfidential dot com, March 2004

It wasn't a bubble bath but I was blasting tunes. By the way....you have some interesting wall art judging by your previous post. Back in the sixties and seventies, some women used to hang out with rock stars and they would take plaster casts of the star's male anatomy. They were referred to as the Plaster Casters. Your post reminds me of this.

So fun that you brought this up bc I think about Cynthia plaster caster all the time! I don't think there was a group of girls, but if you have a source on that info I'm happy to hear it. Jimi Hendrix was her most famous subject and I just love her. Look at her

She also inspired this kiss song

She was a gem. Thank you for letting me showcase her 😊

Drive-Away Dolls (2024) review

Do not see this movie with your mum. I repeat, do not not see this movie with your mum!!

Plot: Jamie regrets her breakup with her girlfriend, while Marian needs to relax. In search of a fresh start, they embark on an unexpected road trip to Tallahassee. Things quickly go awry when they cross paths with a group of inept criminals.

The Coen Brothers are behind some of the most thrilling crime capers in cinema history, and are known for their flashy neo-noir style and highly convoluted plots featuring eccentric characters. However recently the brothers decided to temporarily part ways and focus on their own separate projects, with Joel adapting the famous Shakespeare play Macbeth, which by the way was a superb piece of post-modern black-and-white cinema, and gave Roman Polanski a run for his money. Honestly, Tragedy of Macbeth was visually striking, as it stripped down the classic Bard play to its narrative and perceptible essentials, and also the cast was terrific! Then again, you can never go wrong with Denzel Washington. I honestly don’t know a single person who doesn’t love Denzel!

Anyway, whilst Joel was up to his master-class ways, what has the other Coen bro been up to? We would have found out last year if it weren’t for the strikes, but now we finally have an answer - Ethan has decided to go back to his roots and make a road trip movie that is infused with the 80s/90s goofy feel to it, and he even brings back the briefcase from Fargo! Or from No Country for Old Men. Or The Big Lebowski. Or Hail Caesar!. Pretty sure Brad Pitt also seeks a briefcase full of cash in Burn After Reading…. Honestly what is it with the Coens and their briefcases!? Not only that, I swear most of the time it’s the same model briefcase that’s used! So anyway, Ethan Coen is evidently driving down memory lane here, but is it a drive across the greatest hits, or a drive-away to disappointment?

It’s the latter unfortunately. Now we have seen the true colours and know which of the Coen bros is the talented one and which is riding on their sibling’s success! I’m kidding, everyone has a bad day at the office, but Ethan Coen has really made a stinker with Drive-Away Dolls. Playing out in less than an hour and a half, this is a very short film, so on a plus size is does whiz past you. However the storyline is so thin and disengaging, and the jokes are also really unfunny. The Coen Brothers are known for their signature wit and hilarious dialogue, however none of that is present here. Additionally, similar to how I found Poor Things to feature one too many sex scenes for my liking, Drive-Away Dolls features a lot of lesbian friction throughout, to unnecessary amounts. I thought it was bit too much, and too icky for my tastes.

The cast features a lot of talented people, all of whom I’ve seen give great performances in other projects, however here they were either miscast or simply wasted with their minimal inconsequential screen time. Margaret Qualley is way too over-the-top and silly as the fast talking Jamie with a cringe-inducing accent twang, and she got really overbearing by the end of the movie. Geraldine Viswanathan as Marian plays the straight faced counterpart to Qualley’s annoying energy ball. Again, it’s not the first time we’ve seen such a dynamic in films, yet Viswanathan can’t seem to find any interesting layers within her one-dimensional character and as such came off really boring. The rest of the cast comes and goes, some for sheer forced comedy and others to at least make some attempt to have a cohesive plot, but even then are taken out of the equation quickly and pointlessly. Pedro Pascal, Colman Domingo, Beanie Feldstein, Matt Damon, Bill Camp, Miley Cyrus….all wasted.

The movie also features very sloppy editing, and also the transitions! We have to speak about the transitions! What the hell was going on there? So from scene to scene we’d get these weird wacky psychedelic kaleidoscopic inserts, and I mean in a stoner film this would probably serve more purpose, but in a movie like this it felt totally random. To be fair at the end a character does mention about something that happened years ago that somewhat mildly justifies these inserts, but even then having so much of them throughout the film felt like a useless gimmick. I’m all for filmmakers trying something different and unique visually, but as long as it serves a purpose to the overall narrative, which in this case it did not.

It’s really disappointing as I’m a major fan of the Coen Brothers works, however this was such a messy misfire, I’m honestly shocked it made it through to actual release. It’s silly but not in a fun way, featuring wasted talent and bland gags, and one should simply drive away from this as far as possible.

Overall score: 2/10
