The Connection (1961, trailer)

Eight drug addicts are waiting for their connection in a New York apartment belonging to Leach. Jim Dunn, a budding filmmaker, has agreed to pay for the fix if the addicts will allow him to film the connection scene. After the men get their shots, they talk Dunn into trying heroin in order to understand the subject "first hand." He becomes ill and while sleeping, Leach takes an overdose that puts him into a coma. Dunn recovers, with the aid of the connection, and writes off the film as a failure. *******************************************************************************************************

-This video has no negative impact on the original works.
-This video is also for teaching purposes.
-It is not transformative in nature.
-I only used bits and pieces of videos to get the point across where necessary.

We believe these videos are fair use because:

We also do not wish to use the heart of any piece of work that would perhaps decrease the market value of the original content, if anything, we hope to promote the content so that people can reach out and subsequently increase the market value.

Lastly, these videos are to educate people entertainingly. Given these are short videos, the small parts we use within them act as a catalyst for further reading.

A wonderful movie from a wonderful experimental filmmaker (Shirley Clarke).

I will admit, I didn’t care for the movie until ‘Cowboy’ showed up!

I watched Superfly last night TCM. Barely remember as kid. Blackcula we did see. Blackcula probably has nothing to do with this in the least. Jazz, long before my time. My older sister used to tell me the difference's between jazz scene' and rock scene. Beatles etc.
