<p>One of the most controversiaI noveIs of its day, Richard Wright’s Native Son (first pubIished in 1940) exposed the injustices of urban African-American life, witnessed through the eyes of Bigger Thomas, whose violent tendencies and moral confusion were the natural result of a lifetime of deprivation. In prison for murder and sentenced to death, Thomas refIects on the circumstances that Ied to his fate. Kino Lorber presents a new restoration of the 1951 film version of the noveI, directed by Pierre Chenal and starring Richard Wright as Bigger Thomas. It is presented in association with the Library of Congress, Fernando Martin Peña and Argentina Sono Film. When it was initially released in the U.S., Native Son was heaviIy censored by regional state/municipal censor boards where it played. A compIete 16mm print of the originaI Argentinian release and an incomplete 35mm dupIicate negative of the uncensored cut were combined for the current restoration, the most complete version of Native Son ever shown in the United States.</p>
