Full Frame to premiere Dan Klores' "Black Magic"

The Full Frame Docmentary Film Festival in Durham, NC, will preem Dan Klores' new doc "Black Magic" in a Festival Preview Benefit on February 11. While the fest will host the theatrical version, the full doc will run on ESPN in a four-hour, two-part commercial free series.  Klores last film, "Crazy Love," was acquired at Sundance 2007 by Magnolia.

"Black Magic" is about the lives of black basketball players during the Civil Rights Movement.  Samuel L. Jackson and Wynton Marsalis contribute as narrators.  Basketball legends Earl Monroe and Al Attles will attend the screening with Klores.
