one of the most universally acclaimed films of the year, before night falls appeared on over 75 "ten best" lists and features academy award nominee javier bardem in a "mesmerizing and inspired performance!"
julian schnabel (basquiat) directs this incredible journey through the life and work of the late cuban poet reinaldo arenas. victimized by a government that banned his books and jailed him for a crime he didn't commit, reinaldo endured unspeakable persecution in a courageous stand against censorship and oppression. without a country but not without integrity, he fled to america where he continued to fight for personal expression and produced a stirring body of work.
featuring a dual performance by johnny depp, before night falls is a tribute to the liberating power of art...and one man's undying passion for life.

Eigenwillig inszeniert. ein von nahezu träumerischer Poesie strotzendes Meisterwerk mit einem hervorragenden Javier Bardem.
