Saskia and Hutch: doggy-style

Kitson reminisces 1986 and Richard Lowenstein's second feature, Dogs in Space. He points out that '[And] no matter how you packaged Dogs in Space - sexy rock star or not 5/4/2006 – mainstream audiences of the eighties considered heroin use an abuse, death by overdose as a real downer and some even went to far as to voice the less than symphatetic sentiment, that if you indulged, then you probably had it comin. In its frank depiction of smack, its treatment of a subject traditionallyu considered kitchen sink – low light, hand-held 16mm – with good humour, bright colours and a widescreen format, maybe, just maybe Dogs in Space was way ahead of its audience, the Board of Classification and the puritan times.'
