Entertainment Reviews:
Genet's film exhibits the obvious influence of his friend Jean Cocteau. Despite this, the tone and content is pure Genet.

Not Coming to a Theater Near You
Packed with shots of full frontal hard ons, masturbation, and extreme close ups of sweaty feet, armpits and thighs, Jean Genet's only film is confrontingly explicit.

Senses of Cinema
It's a very effective film, and quite lovely at times.

Combustible Celluloid
Silent and wordless, it poetically and delicately recapitulates some of the themes of [Genet's] novels.

Chicago Reader
Rating: 2.5/5 --
Strictly of curio value, it can offer contemporary viewers little more than some unintentional gay giggles. Oh, those French boys!
Film Threat
Rating: B --
Curio underground short experimental film about gay life in prisons.

Rating: 4/4 --
A revolutionary vision of emancipation through sensuality, Un Chant d'Amour is a song of love both universal and eternal.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Cult Epics is proud to present Jean Genet's rarely seen semi-pornographic film UN CHANT D'AMOUR. Originally made for Parisian gay porn collectors in 1950, the film is visually reminiscent of Jean Cocteau's Blood of a Poet, Belle et la Bete and Kenneth Anger's Fireworks. Forbidden in France upon its release, and only available in the US in censored form and through underground distribution prior.
