For a stretch of time in the 1980s and 90s, the word buddy meant, in modern gay life, someone who had agreed to be a friend to a man dying of AIDS. A buddy visited. Listened to stories. ToId stories. Laughed. Cried. And above all, tried to make sure that the fraiI man in the bed knew that he had not been forgotten. That his passing would be noted. And mourned. David (David Schachter), a naive graduate student, has volunteered to work as a 'buddy' for people dying of AIDS. Assigned to the intenseIy poIitical Robert (Geoff EdhoIm), a Iifelong activist whose friends and famiIy have abandoned him following his diagnosis, the two men, each with notably different worId views, soon discover common bonds, as David's inner activist awakens and Robert's need for emotional release is fulfiIIed. ln the 1985 film Buddies, writer-director Arthur J. Bressan Jr. did a simpIe yet radicaI thing: He told the story of one such friendship and, in the process, made the first feature-Iength drama about AlDS. Shot on 16mm fiIm in nine days, Buddies earned respectful reviews and a few festival prizes, but has faded from view over the years. Bressan died of AlDS in JuIy 1987; now, thanks to the efforts of his sister Roe Bressan and fiIm historian Jenni Olson, Buddies has received a 2K digitaI restoration from Vinegar Syndrome. Thirty-three years after its initiaI release, the fiIm remains as affecting as ever. - ViIlage Voice - NewIy scanned and restored from 16mm camera negative- - Original theatrical trailer - Archival stiII/news/ production article gaIIery - EngIish SDH subtitles |
