Another dazzling suburban phantasm from writer-director Todd Haynes, Dottie Gets Spanked (made post-Poison and pre-Safe) is a stylized, bittersweet nod to his childhood fascination with I Love Lucy. Deep in the heart of pre-hippie 1960s America, young artistically-inclined Steven Gale is obsessed with Dottie Frank, wacky star of the eponymous hit sitcom The Dottie Show. While his mother gently encourages the boy's fixation, his father grows increasingly frustrated by his son'... (Full plot summary below)

Full Plot Details

Another dazzling suburban phantasm from writer-director Todd Haynes, Dottie Gets Spanked (made post-Poison and pre-Safe) is a stylized, bittersweet nod to his childhood fascination with I Love Lucy. Deep in the heart of pre-hippie 1960s America, young artistically-inclined Steven Gale is obsessed with Dottie Frank, wacky star of the eponymous hit sitcom The Dottie Show. While his mother gently encourages the boy's fixation, his father grows increasingly frustrated by his son's apparently "sissified" interests. This provocative, heartfelt mini-feature anticipates Haynes' Oscar-nominated Far From Heaven with its excavation of placid mid-century surfaces and deeply-buried emotions.

Movie Reviews

User Review - 10/10 by Anna BOne of the best short films...hell, one of the best films I've seen.
User Review - 8/10 by Lotti KI really enjoyed this short. Todd Haynes nails not just the period (50's/60's), but also the POV of a six-year-old (burgeoning gay) boy.
User Review - 8/10 by Private U1â??following its namesakeâ??along with Poison and Superstar â??is a signature shot of a child of during the process of being spanked. 2â??family is seen as source of confusion and repression 3â??Lucille Ball of â??I Love Lucyâ?? serves as the source of Dottie (i.e. â??The Dottie Showâ??) 4â??What is (American Independent) Cinema? borrow from German Expressionism and classic film noir
User Review - 8/10 by Louis FReally sweet, really funny, really honest and touching short film by Todd Haynes. Really inspired and totally on the mark. Highly recommended for fans of his work.
User Review - 6/10 by Justin LInteresting Todd Haynes short film. It lacks the depth of his features, but at thirty minutes that's pretty much expected. As always, it's visually compelling and has some great sequences because of this. It's just too bad that those visuals are really all that stands out.

User Review - 6/10 by Jeremiah LMildly provocative look at childhood sexual development that's worth exactly 30 minutes of your life.
User Review - 6/10 by C. HCheio de cenas de sonhos e tal. Interessante.
User Review - 6/10 by Patrick D1: following its namesake, along with Poison and Superstar, is a signature shot of a child of during the process of being spanked. 2: family is seen as source of confusion and repression 3: Lucille Ball of "I Love Lucy" serves as the source of Dottie (i.e. "The Dottie Show") 4: What is (American Independent) Cinema? borrow from German Expressionism and classic film noir
User Review - 6/10 by Kenneth LSandwiched between Poison and Safe, Haynes's filling-in-the-spanks of any would-be over-mothered nancy boy hits squarely home. The constipated 50s provide fecund ground for protagonist's Stevie's beaver-leaving, lily-Lucy-gilding, and the ultimate burial of his fetishizing. Production values and costume design wow. A sort of Haynes confessional.
