A film of two halves...both interesting, both in need of much more...

Definitely...a potential feature...despite the suit's trousers being too short!

The(ir) Blurb...

Based on an unrealised film script written in 1964 for The Homosexual Law Reform Society, a British organisation that campaigned for the decriminalisation of homosexual relations between men, 'The Colour of His Hair' merges drama and documentary into an impressionistic meditation on queer life before and after the partial legalisation of homosexuality in 1967.
