Production
Bartel's previous film as director, Eating Raoul, had been popular, enabling him to raise $3 million for this film, ten times the budget of Raoul. Bartel says this enabled him to use a camera crane, relatively well known stars like Nancy Allen and David Naughton, and to produce a musical number in the film.[2]
Filming started October 1983.[5] It finished in December.[6]
$2.5 million of the budget came from EMI.[7]
Reception
Box Office
The film was a financial failure. "Maybe it needed stronger names," Bartel said later.[7]
Critical response
Rex Reed called Not for Publication "a delictable treat."[4] While TV Guide offered even wider praise saying "The story is wildly improbable and sometimes hilariously funny. The dialog is inventive and the characters bizarre, and it all smacks of those cult movies that will have a long life in the Saturday night midnight shows around the country."[8]
