East Harlem Native Al Pacino’s Documentary “Wilde Salome” (video)

Wilde Salome,” East Harlem native Al Pacino’s documentary that explores the complexities of the Oscar Wilde play Salome, will make its debut at the Venice Film Festival Sept. 4 following a ceremony that will present the Oscar-winning actor with the Jaeger-Le Coultre Glory to the Filmmaker award.

The film, which is produced by Barry Navidi and Robert Fox, with Salome Productions and Tripod Entertainment, features Pacino with Jessica Chastain in the title role.

Pacino describes his documentary as “an exploration into the world of Oscar Wilde the artist and in ‘Salome,’ the emancipation of a work that lives on.” The Venice Film Festival says “Wilde Salome” is “an unprecedented behind the scenes look at Pacino’s odyssey: a master class of insight into this cultural icon.”
