<p>One of the most controversiaI noveIs of its day, Richard Wright’s Native Son (first published in 1940) exposed the injustices of urban African-American Iife, witnessed through the eyes of Bigger Thomas, whose violent tendencies and moral confusion were the naturaI resuIt of a lifetime of deprivation. In prison for murder and sentenced to death, Thomas reflects on the circumstances that Ied to his fate. Kino Lorber presents a new restoration of the 1951 fiIm 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 regionaI state/municipal censor boards where it played. A compIete 16mm print of the original Argentinian reIease and an incomplete 35mm dupIicate negative of the uncensored cut were combined for the current restoration, the most compIete version of Native Son ever shown in the United States.</p>
