Downtown 81
N.p. N.p., Circa 2000. Six vintage borderless color lobby cards from the French release of the 2000 American film. Housed in the original manila envelope with the film's logo on one side.
An urban fairy tale, wherein Jean-Michel Basquiat, playing himself, roams the streets of New York City, encountering many denizens of the musical underground in the process. Shot in December of 1980 and January of 1981, the film was abandoned after completion due to budgetary constraints, but was revived by producer and screenwriter Glenn O'Brien in 1999, and made its public debut at the 2000 Cannes Film Festival.
11 x 8.25 inches. Fine.
