Shot on video over six years in the mid-1990s by legendary photographer Richard Sandler, The Gods of Times Square is a portrait of the "Crossroads of the World” at the end of the millennium, told through the words of its denizens, particularly the various street preachers that populated every corner.  Now over twenty five years since its transformation to the unrecognizable, the Times Square known for generations only exists in memory and dreams, one of many treasured, vanquished New York demimondes. The Gods of Times Square is now available in an extended version through the auspices of Josh Safdie, Elara Pictures and The Film Desk.
