Kino Lorber announces the release of a new 2K restoration of Philip Kaufman’s 1979 cult favorite The Wanderers, in limited theatrical engagements beginning in November 2016, with screenings in key national markets including New York, Los Angeles, Austin, San Francisco, Houston, Philadelphia, and more.

Based on the acclaimed first novel by Richard Price (The Night Of), Philip Kaufman’s The Wanderers follows the exploits of the titular Italian-American gang in the Bronx in 1963, just before the country underwent profound change. Part comedy and part drama, the film is an evocative and thrilling look back at a more innocent time.

The cult classic features a jukebox full of golden oldies and a young cast of up and comers including Ken Wahl (Wiseguy), Karen Allen (Raiders of the Lost Ark), and Linda Manz (Days of Heaven), and co-stars John Friedrich, Toni Kalem, Alan Rosenberg, Jim Youngs, Tony Ganios, Dolph Sweet, Michael Wright, Val Avery, Olympia Dukakis and Erland van Lidth de Jeude.

The Wanderers was adapted and directed by Philip Kaufman, filmmaker and Oscar®-nominated screenwriter whose career spans 13 films and more than 50 years, and whose credits include such hit films as Invasion of the Body Snatchers, The Right Stuff, The Unbearable Lightness of Being, and Henry and June.
