Barbara Rubin was an underground filmmaker—and, according to John Cale, the person who introduced Andy Warhol to Edie Sedgwick—,who in 1963 made the notoriously progressive film Christmas on Earth. Originally titled Cocks and Cunts, the film was shot at 56 Ludlow Street and screened against silver walls at the 47th Street Factory. Rubin also projected reels from Christmas on Earth at Exploding Plastic Inevitable performances in 1966 at Rutgers University and The Dom, and attempted to stage a concert in London with Ed Sanders, ESP Records, Warhol, and the Velvet Underground, which unfortunately did not happen.
