"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 performance1' (Rex Reed, New York Observer)
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." (from slipcase)
