Don Downie was raving about the film Downtown 81 [about the Lower East Side scene in 1981 and starring a 19 year old Jean Michel Basquiat] when it was discovered and re-released in Manhattan theaters last year. Thanks to the forums at ARCHINECT, I came across this website toady, which provides tons of info on the film. It was supposedly released on DVD in September by Zeitgeist Films. This should be of particular interest to anyone interested in the current electro and post punk scene. [*update]: Tracked it down at DVD Empire.
