How many girls recall losing their virginity to some uncaring jerk that just pounded away with no regard and then split a couple of minutes later? You probably spent some time hating boys and did not understand what all the hype was about regarding sexual intercourse. Mary Jane's Not a Virgin Anymore is about a girl going through similar emotions in this ultra-low budget fare. Viewers will not marvel over the Oscar-worthy performances, but perhaps they will find a funny and realistic portrayal of a woman’s sexual awakening from her perspective. Mary Jane’s story has a punk rock backdrop, but I think anyone who remembers the awkward nature of sex and dating in early adulthood can relate. Incidents and conversations of this nature take place in all of our lives. Longtime San Francisco garage rocker Beth Allen—of bands like the LOUDMOUTHS, COCKPIT, and the MEAT SLUTS—is in the best-friend support role while A.F.I. vocalist Davey Havoc and Jello Biafra are just two more Bay Area punk scene faces seen on Sarah Jacobson’s Super 8 camera.
