Based on drunken late night improvisations developed by Mailer, Knox and Farber following stage performances of The Deer Park, Wild 90 follows the uneventful exchanges of three small-time crooks holed up in a rundown New York apartment. Despite poor sound recording, this improvisational work features a vigorous performance from Mailer whether taunting his cronies or going nose to nose with a German Shepherd.
