Programmer's Pick

If you’re here for nuanced storytelling, keep scrolling. But for fans of Uschi Digard’s exuberant assets and softcore ‘70s satire, Getting Into Heaven offers a frothy, flesh-forward Hollywood send-up. The plot may be tissue-thin, but the parade of eye-popping vignettes is anything but subtle.

Overview

Getting Into Heaven is a cheeky sexploitation comedy following Heaven, an ambitious starlet played by Uschi Digard, as she navigates Hollywood’s sleazy underbelly. With her provocatively named roommate Sin, she’s determined to land a part in the movies—no matter what it takes to impress the libidinous Mr. Salacity, a producer with transparent motives. The film leans heavily on playful nudity, softcore escapades, and a parade of casting couch shenanigans, setting up a bawdy romp where the real plot is just an excuse for copious titillation. All the while, Heaven’s straight-laced boyfriend urges her to abandon her dreams, but she’s set on one last shot at fame, even if it means testing the limits of showbiz ambition.
