Eating Raoul Painting

Mary: At the store, can you buy a new frying pan? I'm a little squeamish about using the one we use to kill people. Paul: It's amazing what you can do with a cheap piece of meat if you know how to treat it. Sex Shop Salesman: But I'm telling you - you're gonna need a lubricant for this vibrator. Unless your date's inflatable. Ha! Paul: For your information, I'm buying this to use as a novelty cocktail stirrer! Sex Shop Salesman: [shouts] Sure! 
 Mary: Why should we give up any of that money? We had to kill two people to get it! Raoul Mendoza: You killed two people for less than a thousand dollars? Mary: ...One of them shortchanged us. 
 Susan - Swinger in Fur: We're into B&D but not S&M. We met at the A&P. Sex Shop Customer: Have you got the latest issue of Nuns and Nazis? Sex Shop Salesman: Tuesday. 
 Paul: A hundred-and-seventy-five-dollar-a-month rent increase! How are we going to pay that? Mary: Don't worry. We can live on your insta-cash card for a month or so. Paul: Don't you remember? It was canceled for non-payment. 
 Opening Narration: Hollywood, California. Home to the rich and powerful. Yet so popular with the broken and destitute. Here sex-hunger is reflected in every aspect of daily life, and instant gratification is tirelessly pursued. A center of casual violence and capricious harassment. Where rampant vice and amorality permeate every strata of society... It is a known fact that prolonged exposure to just such a psychopathic environment will eventually warp even the most normal and decent among us. Paul: [to Mary, after killing someone] Well, there's one consideration. If you'd done what he asked, he would have died anyway. Paul: Mary, if we call it the Country Kitchen, can the specialty still be the Bland Enchilada? Sex Shop Salesman: Okay, your vibrators start at $10.95 and go up. We've got the Salami, Man-o'-War and... [pulls out huge vibrator] Sex Shop Salesman: Alien. Paul: Just give me the cheapest one. Sex Shop Salesman: Wait a minute. There's nothing cheap about my store. You mean inexpensive don't you? [pokes Paul on shoulder with "Alien" vibrator] Sex Shop Salesman: Isn't that what you meant? Paul: [intimidated] Yes. Sex Shop Salesman: That's what I thought you meant! 
 Paul: Mary, I just killed a man. Mary: He was a man. Now he's just a bag of garbage. 
 Sex Shop Salesman: Le Orgy Gel comes in lemon, mint, cherry or trail-mix. Paul: Trail-mix? Sex Shop Salesman: I was making a joke. 
 Paul: Why don't you go to bed, honey? I'll bag the Nazi and straighten up.
 
 Sex Shop Salesman: Hey, you taste it, you're gonna buy it, alright? 
 Dewey: Don't worry, she's just kidding. Actually, enemas are my specialty.
 
 [Discussing cheap wine] Customer: Really? Stomach cramps? But it's such a good buy. Paul: Well, so is lighter fluid at three ninety-five a pint, but I wouldn't serve it to my dinner guests. from ‘Eating Raoul’ (1982) Starring John Landis (Dr. Giggles’ Darkman), Robert Beltran (Night of the Comet), Susan Saiger (Get Crazy), Robert V.

 Eating Raoul is a 1982 American black comedy film written, directed by and starring Paul Bartel with Mary Woronov, Robert Beltran, Ed Begley Jr., Buck Henry, and Susan Saiger. It is about a prudish married couple (Bartel and Woronov) who resort to killing and robbing affluent swingers to earn money for their dream restaurant. The writers commissioned a single-issue comic book based on the film for promotion; it was created by underground comix creator Kim Deitch. 
 
 Paul Bartel (August 6, 1938 – May 13, 2000) was an American actor, writer and director. He was perhaps most known for his 1982 hit black comedyEating Raoul, which he wrote, starred in and directed.

He frequently co-starred with friend and former Warhol girl Mary Woronov; the pair appeared in 17 films together, often as husband and wife. Bartel also directed 11 low-budget films, many of which he also acted in or wrote. He started in 1968 with the short The Secret Cinema, a paranoid delusional fantasy of self-referential cinema. He graduated to features in 1972 with the horror-comedy Private Parts. He would go on to direct such cult films as Death Race 2000 (1975), Eating Raoul (1982), Lust in the Dust (1985) and Scenes from the Class Struggle in Beverly Hills (1989).

 Quick Artist’s Note: Like Hara-Kiri, I intended to add the Criterion logo to the upper left corner of this painting. But in my haste (I started “the drip” before the first layer was dry) I simply forgot. Whoopsy... Call me biased, but I’d say it looks good (or maybe better?) without it.
