F&F Productions
Directed by: Samuel Fuller
Featuring: Constance Towers, Anthony Eisley, Michael Dante, Virginia Grey, Patsy Kelly, Marie Devreux, Karen Conrad, Gerald Michenaud, Betty Robinson, Breena Howard, Sally Mills, Edy Williams, Betty Bronson, Neyle Morrow
The setup is pure pulp: A former prostitute (a crackerjack Constance Towers) relocates to a buttoned-down suburb, determined to fit in with mainstream society. But in the strange, hallucinatory territory of writer-director-producer Samuel Fuller, perverse secrets simmer beneath the wholesome surface. Featuring radical visual touches, full-throttle performances, brilliant cinematography by Stanley Cortez, and one bizarrely beautiful musical number, The Naked Kiss is among Fuller’s greatest, boldest entertainments.

Release Notes on Restoration
The Naked Kiss
The Naked Kiss is presented in the aspect ratio of 1.75:1. On standard 4:3 televisions, the image will appear letterboxed. On widescreen televisions, the image should fit the screen. This new high-defintion digital transfer was created on a Spirit Datacine from a 35mm fine-grain master positive. Thousands of instances of dirt, debris, scratches, splices, warps, jitter, and flicker were manually removed using MTI's DRS system and Pixel Farm's PFClean system, while Digital Vision's DVNR system was used for small dirt, grain, and noise reduction.
The monaural soundtrack was remastered at 24-bit from the optical track. Clicks, thumps, hiss, and hum were manually removed using Pro Tools HD. Crackle was attenuated using AudioCibe's integrated audio workstation.
