Ganja & Hess is also covered in How To Read a Film and there is a
nice clip from it on the dvd-rom version of HTRAF. (The clip is the
blood bank caper, with a nice tune by Sam Waymon on the ST.)

To my knowledge there is a print at MoMA--but this may be out of date info.

Bill Gunn was an important film and theater artist who deserves to be
more widely recognized.
