Synopsis
Barkley Phillips returns to cinema after a nearly 70 year absense! This time around everyone's favorite transient is going door to door helping out desperate ladies with their plumbing issues. What happens when Barkley's mystery Tempress doesn't have any monetary way of paying him for his services? I think you know... but does her husband?

Premiere/Release
Although the film was produced in 2005, IMdB counts the official release to be the 2006 Tucson Film Shortfest, held at Tucson's Loft Cinema in early 2006. Film has also screened twice at the Loft's 'First Friday Shorts' event, coming in 2nd place both times - one such time featured another film by Sparkle Kid director, Nate Buchik winning the monthly prize and eventually winning the Loft's yearly prize for Preaching The Word.

Notes:
Made as a student film by filmmakers Phillip Lybrand, Andres Martinez, Dave Groseclose, and Nate Buchik for an assignment that required the teams of students to produce a film using only two colors for art direction (black and white, duh) and combining at least two genres (silent film and porno). They got an A, and eventually the film was screened in competition for the Tucson Film Shortfest in 2006 and was also distributed by HungryFlix, an iPod/PMP download site.
