Coming to DVD tomorrow, Tuesday, November 11: PORTRAIT OF JASON
Shirley Clarke’s seminal look at black gay male identity debuted at the New York Film Festival in 1967. Milestone Films and the Academy Film Archive debuted the restored film at Berlin last year, followed by a theatrical re-release and festival screenings at London, Poland’s American Film Festival, CPH:DOX, and the upcoming IDFA. This release also marks the first time the film has ever been available on Blu-ray.
I wrote about the film upon its theatrical re-release here.
