Eternal trans icon/Warhol superstar Holly Woodlawn (Trash, Women in Revolt) is a total riot in this newly-uncovered, freshly-restored Seventies sketch comedy musical, lovingly brought back to life by the Academy Film Archive.
Holly stars as a small-town Kansas girl who tries to make it big — or at least find a roommate — in New York City. Scarecrow has the feel of an undiscovered Robert Downey, Sr. picture, is stacked with Old Hollywood references and also has an epic supporting performance from fellow Warhol scenester Tally Brown. It’s one of the very first feature films with a trans lead, and has bonus cameos from Bette Midler and Lily Tomlin. Previously out of circulation for 50 years, Scarecrow has never been on home video or streaming, and is now finally ready to find the cult audience it's long deserved. (Robert J. Kaplan, USA, 1972, 82 min.)
