The Panic In Needle Park (Blu-ray) Signal One

$34.95

After a botched abortion, Helen has a chance encounter with small-time hustler and heroin addict, Bobby, and the pair fall in love. But their bleak existence in and around Manhattan’s ‘Needle Park’, with its overdoses, betrayals and police raids, pushes their relationship to the extreme.

Featuring a stand-out performance by Al Pacino (who would go on to star in The Godfather a year later), Jerry Schatzberg’s hard-hitting examination of life in the margins of society is presented here with an extensive selection of extra features.
