Larry Karaszewski on

Coming Apart

Released 1969
Distributor Kaleidoscope Films

Rip Torn plays a psychiatrist with more problems than his patients; the disturbed shrink secretly films sessions with his clients just before seducing them. Milton Moses Ginsberg staged the film in one room with one camera angle trained on Torn and his conquests, one of whom is Sally Kirkland. She and Torn give no-holds-barred performances set to Jefferson Airplane’s music, a jarring element that was lost on home video due to copyrights. John Simon hated the experience, just another reason to give Ginsberg’s risk-taking movie a look.
