New release of "long lost" film
END OF THE ROAD

End of the Road article in Cineaste - "One of the great ‘lost films’ of the late ‘60s, the audacious, highly crafted End of the Road, has haunted generations of audiences—especially film buffs—not only on account of its virtual disappearance—but because it captured on film, with cool detachment, the tumultuous zeitgeist of its times. The film also marks a big screen ‘first’ for cinematic super-talents: James Earl Jones, Stacy Keach, Harris Yulin and the film’s Director of Photography: Gordon Willis."
— Nile Southen

From the film’s opening frame, the sound-editing, music selection and a hauntingly original score by Teo Macero,
combine to form a tour-de-force of exquisitely paced and interwoven textures...

End of the Road now joins a prestigious group of formerly ‘X’- rated films, including Midnight Cowboy (1969), and
A Clockwork Orange (1971). These powerful, disturbing visions of society’s outcasts, much-maligned at the time of their release, have been cleansed of the stigma of ‘porn’—with the MPAA certifying them as ‘R’.
