Known for his visual style as well as for his experimentation in virtually every genre of narrative cinema, award-winning director Sidney J. Furie also has the distinction of having made Canada's first ever feature-length fictional film in English, A Dangerous Age (1957). With a body of work that includes The Ipcress File (1965), Lady Sings the Blues (1972), and The Entity (1982), he has collaborated with major stars such as Marlon Brando, Frank Sinatra, Robert Redford, and Michael Caine, and his films have inspired some of Hollywood's most celebrated directors, including Stanley Kubrick and Quentin Tarantino. In this first biography of the prolific filmmaker, author Daniel Kremer offers a comprehensive look at the director's unique career. Furie pioneered techniques such as improvisation in large-scale film productions, and sometimes shot his films in sequence to develop the characters from the ground up and improve the performers' in-the-moment spontaneity. Not only has Stanley Kubrick acknowledged that Furie's The Boys in Company C (1978) informed and influenced Full Metal Jacket (1987), but Martin Scorsese has said that he considers The Entity to be one of the scariest horror films of all time. However, Furie was often later criticized for accepting lowbrow work, and as a result, little serious study has been devoted to the director. Meticulously researched and enhanced by Kremer's close relationship with the filmmaker, this definitive biography captures the highs and lows of an exceptional but underexamined career, taking readers behind the scenes with a director who was often ahead of his time.

Denny crushed Jenn’s first love interest when he showed up with a cheerleader at the creamery where she works. To get her revenge, she ‘borrows’ his truck and disappears across state lines. She wakes in a library parking lot, where Felisha Mutombo, the librarian, takes Jenn in and adopts her. Felisha’s unique sexual proclivities open new horizons for Jenn. First, she’s transformed into Clarice, the new ‘it’ girl in her high school. She and her posse negotiate the complex territory of erotica. But on entering University, she’s expelled during her first year for a sexual dance with a handsome ballet dancer. She absconds with her scholarship money to India, where monks invite her to a Tantric monastery, and her sexual curiosity becomes her spiritual path to erotic mastery. Sister Padma suggests Clarice train with Doyama, a Kinbaku adept, in the red-light district of Tokyo. There she discovers her true power when the teacher becomes her student. He persuades her to learn the business, sending her to Hong Kong to meet the slippery businessman Wing Lau. Together, Wing and Clarice build a sampan business, indulging the desires of wealthy men and women. But the Triad has their number, making them a target for takeover. To escape the gangster sex traffickers, Clarice and her people board the Siren, a freighter gifted to her by a Greek lover. From port to port across the South China Sea and beyond, they bring joy wherever they go, leaving their customers hungry for more. Clarice’s journey of discovery leads to a Juggler’s Choice: will she escape the sex trade and become a hotelier or indulge her kinky fantasies forever?
