Electric Blue 26

About This Movie

Electric Blue 26 is a curious blend of documentary and romance set against the backdrop of the Great Depression, featuring a narrative woven through the enticing world of speakeasies. In 'Silk Garter Club,' the rivalry between a mobster and a head dancer delivers a gritty ambiance that hints at the underbelly of a glamorous era. The second segment, 'Greece: Our Girls Leave It In Ruins,' transports us to Mykonos, showcasing the carefree lives of EB girls like Tracey, Stacey, and Sally Anne. It’s got this relaxed, almost dreamlike pacing that contrasts sharply with the tension of the first story. The performances feel authentic, adding a layer of depth to the overall experience, making it a distinctive piece in the Electric Blue series.

Electric Blue 26 has become somewhat of a rarity, often sought after by collectors who appreciate the unique intersection of documentary and scripted narrative. Various formats have surfaced over the years, but its earlier VHS releases tend to be more coveted. The combination of its thematic elements and the intriguing glimpses into a bygone era has fostered a particular interest among those who collect adult-themed cinema from the 80s.
