Bartholomew is an arteest. He looks like Fargo North Decoder from The Electric Company and has a counterculture girlfriend who poses nude for his abstract paintings. Arnold is a secret agent. He’s a young Jack Lemmon look-and-sound-alike who hangs out with his whiny girlfriend, Chrissy. For some reason, Barth is hired by a man on a boat to snuff out Arnold. He says, “I must kill for my art!”, then proceeds to scour a winterized NYC, pistol in hand, for Arnold. Chrissy and Arnold argue in a bar while a couple have sex at the next table. Storefronts, pizza joints, and electric streetscapes partner with toilet sight gags, arbitrary nudity from attractive women, and Barth’s vaudevillian mimicry. After a not-so-quick drive to the country, everyone gets cold and decides to warm up. In bed. I won’t give away the ending. Because there isn’t one.
This movie is called Thigh Spy. That’s amazing. But you know what else is amazing? Nothing happens. It’s 60 minutes long and you can watch the whole thing and when it’s over, you feel as if you did not watch the whole thing. Yet, the amazing doesn’t stop there. Thigh Spy fashions a strange and unexpectedly joyous reality in which secret agent orgies commingle with lovely, documentary-styled photography while a topless woman interprets The Beach Boys’ “Sloop John B” on an acoustic guitar.
