80 Blocks From Tiffany's - Official DVD Trailer (Fall 2010)

Coming Fall 2010 Five Day Weekend proudly presents a trailer for the upcoming re-release of "80 Blocks From Tiffany's." Available commercially for the first time in 25 years, "80 Blocks..." finally gets to see the light of day, and will, without doubt, take its rightful place among the best documentary films of the 1970s. Only a film-maker like Gary Weis, with strong youth and counter-culture credentials (including his numerous productions for the original Saturday Night Live), could penetrate the mental and physical fortresses constructed by the young toughs who prowl the New York streets in gangs. Weis gets on the inside of these gangs and exposes their illegal activities, their techniques, their reasons, their girls, and the cops who interact with them. The much anticipated DVD release will include the feature film as well as never before seen interviews, a 40 page hard cover book featuring brand new liner notes, artwork by Julian Allen, the original "Savage Skulls" article by the late Jon Bradshaw (Esquire Magazine, June 1977), and more.
