Arch Brown, an amateur photographer turned incidental filmmaker first came to broad public attention through his films.

So what is Arch Brown's The Night Before trying to tell us? Dick Fisk was one of the most famous faces of gay erotica in the mid to late 1970’s and onward into the early 1980’s. He was manly, oozed sexuality and confidence and….that mustache. He appeared in only a handful of magazines and movies but his iconic look made him Falcon Studios first "instant" superstar. In this episode we are going to celebrate Arch Brown, a filmmaker who would become a master craftsman and philanthropist after leaving the corporate world behind, his film, The Night Before, a beautifully crafted film that was on Variety’s 50 top-grossing film’s list in the nation for five weeks.
