About to watch...


Killer of Sheep. I've been waiting to watch this for sometime now and I finally have the chance to watch it(Thanks to my brother). The film is directed by Charles Burnett who made this film on a budget of under $10,000. It was shot on 16mm and recently was restored and transferred to 35mm. This masterpiece never had a wide release back in 1977 because of the fact that it featured songs in the film that couldn't pass clearance at the time. In 2007 it was featured in many film festivals and a limit theatrical release, but finally the film is available on DVD so I have my opportunity to enjoy it.
