PANIC IN NEEDLE PARK 1971
U.S. film. Al Pacino's first major movie. The lowdown life of heroin addicts in New York City's "Needle Park" (Broadway & 72nd Street). Crime, prostitution and overdoses. Excruciating close-ups of junkies laboring to find a good vein. Good look at a very grimy NYC before urban renewal. Hard to find drug movie. Kitty Winn, Alan Vint, Richard Bright, Kiel Martin, Michael McClanathan. Panic In Needle Park!
Bonus Selection: "The Terrible Truth" 1951 drug scare film.
