For the first time, Mark Chervinsky’s Josh “Shag” Agle documentary, The Sophisticated Misfit is available for your viewing pleasure on DVD.

The Sophisticated Misfit is a four-year exploration of the world of Shag, the unlikeliest of Los Angeles artistic icons. His work doesn't reflect the multicultural urban milieu of contemporary Los Angeles, but rather an entirely different era. Think post-World War II boom years, suburban tracts sprawling across the landscape, Disneyland opening its doors, and designers embracing the space-age motifs of the Sputnik and the mission to the moon. Shag's world is one of early 1960s furniture, sprawling ranch houses, built-in wet bars, and jet-set style.

With special features that include a never before seen Paul Frank tour of his old Huntington Beach workshop and a day with Shag's silk-screener Jeff Waserman as he makes Shag’s print Well Hung, this is one documentary that won’t put you to sleep! Purchasing details and more info at http://www.smee.tv.

I got it. It's pretty good. I enjoyed the end credits. Bud Light Year, was good but I think I laughed the most @ Tipsy's credit.
