About Melanie's Hot Line
An obscene telephone call leads a young couple into a world of bizarre sex sparked by the mysterious voices on the other end of the line. A cyclone of indecent lust and perversion follows as we watch one deviant call the next, each with an increasingly lurid exhibition in which pain, pleasure and lasciviousness tell the mind warping story of the San Francisco underground sex culture. When they all meet up in the end, all rules are broken.
Directed by Maurice Delarue, Melanie's Hot Line leans on a strong ensemble — Joan Devlon, Pharoah Amos, Justina Lynne — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1975.

College "frenemies" Lauren and Katie move in together after losing a relationship and rent control, respectively. Sharing Katie's late grandmother's apartment in New York City, the girls bicker with each other until one fateful night, when Katie's noisy bedroom activities make Lauren barge in and discover a dirty little secret. This revelation brings them closer together, and Lauren (the brains) and Katie (the talent) concoct a wildly successful business venture. As profits swell, the girls reevaluate their hopes and dreams and realize that just because someone pees in your hair in college doesn't mean she won't be your best friend 10 years later.
