In 1967, shortly after moving to New York, Forman happened upon the first preview of the Public Theater’s new production, Hair. Adapted for the screen 10 years later, his tribute to this Broadway rock musical is a highly original encapsulation of 1960s ideals, featuring spirited performances by John Savage, Beverly D’Angelo, and the raucous Treat Williams. The Czech cinematographer Miroslav Ondrícek and choreographer Twyla Tharp contribute to the visual energy. 1979, 35mm, 121 minutes.
