CELEBRATE THE PORTLAND TRAILBLAZERS WITH A RARE DOCUMENTARY ABOUT THE 1977 CHAMPIONSHIP TEAM

“An absolute must-see for anyone with an interest in the history of either the Trail Blazers or Portland…”
– Portland Mercury

“richly atmospheric…”
– The Oregonian

The Clinton Street Theater proudly
presents “FAST BREAK”, an ultra rare documentary about the 1977 Trailblazers – that has been out of circulation since 1978, when it played exclusively in Portland theaters for only one week.

Evoking a trippy cinema verite feel not found in most sports documentaries, FAST BREAK examines the 1977 Trailblazers in a surprisingly personal and compelling fashion. Inter-cutting excerpts from the playoff / championship season, the film steps outside of the basketball court, and into the everyday lives of the Trailblazers, as well as their coach Jack Ramsey. Whether it’s biking the Oregon coast with Bill Walton, hosting a kids basketball camp with Dave Twardzik, or joking with Maurice Lucas at the training pool – FAST BREAK lets the players speak for themselves: about basketball, life and playing in Portland.

FAST BREAK is part of the Don Zavin Collection at the Oregon Historical Society Motion Picture Archives
