Directed by Miloš Forman
Screening of the film: "Hair"
€ 3.00Full of passion, energy and the music that got an entire generation dancing, Hair is the entertaining and powerful tribute to the turbulent, revolutionary spirit of the Sixties in the United States. Claude (played by John Savage) travels from the countryside to New York intent on enlisting for the Vietnam War. However, when he gets caught up in a hippy gathering in Central Park, he encounters a new world of previously undreamed of freedoms and discovers psychedelic experiences, sexual freedom, as well as love and friendship. Inspired by the famous 1967 Broadway musical, Oscar® -winning director Miloš Forman presents his preferred themes from the Sixties protests, alternating drama and comedy. The film is a powerful testament to the hippy movement - actually already over by the time it was released - due in no small part to the unforgettable music by Galt MacDermot, with words written by Gerome Ragni and Jim Rado. Introduced by Marco Aime
Miloš Forman studied Cinematography in Prague. Films from his early career include A Blonde in Love (1965), which won him the nomination for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Film. After the Prague Spring and the Soviet invasion, Forman moved to the United States in 1968 where he filmed the satire Taking off in 1971. Success came in 1975 with One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, which won five Oscars, including Best Director. He continued the subject of social protest with Hair (1979) and Ragtime (1981). His greatest hit, Amadeus, on the life of Mozart, won him another Academy Award for Best Director in 1984. In the years that followed, his films included Valmont (1989), The People vs. Larry Flint (1996), Man on the Moon (1999) and Goya’s Ghosts (2006). A serious form of macular degeneration prevented him from directing, although he occasionally performed in films, his dedication to cinema undimmed until his recent death.
