Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
This was director Gary Youngman's only feature; he spent his career as a TV editor instead. The film disappeared for decades before a 2019 digital restoration by a cult film archive.
Released the same year as An Unmarried Woman but with 1/1000th the budget, Rush It captures working-class single women in Manhattan without the polish—messier, hornier, more desperate.
