AI notes: Jumpin' Jack Flash (1986) is a comedic spy thriller starring Whoopi Goldberg as Terry Doolittle, a New York City bank computer operator who gets caught up in international espionage when she receives an encrypted message from a British agent trapped behind the Iron Curtain. As she tries to help him escape, Terry is drawn into a chaotic world of spies, danger, and government secrets, all while using her wit and humor to survive. Directed by Penny Marshall in her debut, the film blends Cold War intrigue with sharp comedy and features a soundtrack including the Rolling Stones’ title song.
I suspect this to be an extremely rare item because their was really no reason to save it at the time.
The Village Voice was an American counterculture newspaper known for being the country's first alternative newsweekly. It introduced free-form, high-spirited, and passionate journalism into the public discourse - a tradition it maintained throughout its 60+ year history. It is quite common to find great political cartoons, satirical cartoons and articles, thought-provoking editorials, and ads and reviews for both concerts and theater productions - both on and off Broadway. Many iconic writers and musicians credit their appearance in The Village Voice for at least a portion of their success.
