Comfort and Joi uses one fan&8217sobsession with a blonde bombshell to explore our fascination with the movies. Memory and movies collide when the narrator of Comfort and Joi, award-winning screenwriter Joseph Dougherty&8217simaginative blend of fiction and film fact, sets out to document the life and work of bosomy blonde Joi Lansing, a minor glamour girl who appeared in such &8220clasics&8221as Hillbillys in a Haunted House and Queen of Outer Space. Alone in a borrowed house on the California coast during a winter weekend, he indulges his infatuation with a pinup who rose from extra girl to working with Orson Welles, only to end her career in grade-Z horror pictures.Offbeat movie history from the fringes of Hollywood triggers personal memories as he follows this &8220beatiful beacon in a Sargasso of bad filmmaking&8221and finds an unexpected path to his own past.&8220Josph Dougherty is a fantastically gifted writer. His observations are haunting, funny, and completely original.&8221&8212Chrstopher Guest&8220Ameditation on movie love structured as tautly as a good noir screenplay.&8221&8212Fealess Reviews&8220Abook about Hollywood and Pop Culture like no other.&82218212The Fedora Chronicles&8220Douherty is a humanist who argues that each of us has to look, listen, choose, and commit. His work is as encouraging as it is enlightening.&82218212 Douglas Heil, Prime-Time Authorship
