Water’s Journey – The River Returns

Description
Utilizing some unusual views high above and deep within the earth, a team of explorers completely immerses themselves in the mechanics of a river system on a quest to define the nature and source of its powerful flow. Their adventures reveal the stunning beauty of a wild and scenic land and the difficult issues facing the populace as they grapple with the reality of inevitable growth.

As human kind comes perilously close to out-pacing our true understanding of these renewable resources, the challenge lies in learning how to coexist with our rivers, while building a better understanding of how our lives are intertwined in this great natural cycle of water.

The River Returns inspires hope that the great watersheds of our planet can be saved, and that environmental protection and sustainable growth can coexist in a new paradigm of cooperation.

Classic Albums: Fleetwood Mac – Rumours

Description
This is the definitive story of the making of Fleetwood Mac’s Rumours, with specially recorded versions of Christine McVie’s “Songbird” and Lindsay Buckingham’s acoustic version of “Never Going Back Again.” 75 minutes.

Amazon.com
Oh, the heartache. Oh, the drug intake. And oh, the sales records they did break. It’s all here in this 70-minute, 1997 chronicle of the making of one of pop music’s biggest albums ever, Rumours. All five members of Fleetwood Mac’s most successful incarnation are interviewed, and their comments are even more candid than the confessional songs (“Dreams,” “Go Your Own Way” et al.) on the album itself; descriptions of the torturous process of making a record while John and Christine McVie’s marriage and the Lindsey Buckingham- Stevie Nicks liaison were breaking up at the same time makes for compelling, if slightly discomfiting, viewing. Meanwhile, lest one forget that Rumours was terrific as well as revealing, plenty of attention is paid to the songs. Particularly fascinating (as with most Classic Albums packages) are the breakdowns of the separate instrumental and vocal components of individual tracks. A great tale, wonderfully told. –Sam Graham

The King of Comedy

Amazon.com
The King of Comedy, which flopped at the box office, is actually a gem waiting to be rediscovered. Like A Face in the Crowd (a not-so-distant cousin to this film), Network, and The Truman Show, its target is show business–specifically the burning desire to become famous or be near the famous, no matter what. Robert De Niro plays the emotionally unstable, horrendously untalented Rupert Pupkin, a wannabe Vegas-style comedian. His fantasies are egged on by Marsha, a talk-show groupie (brilliantly played by Sandra Bernhard) who hatches a devious, sure-to-backfire plan. Jerry Lewis is terrific in the straight role as the Johnny Carson-like talk-show host Jerry Langford. De Niro’s performance as the obsessive Pupkin is among his finest (which is saying a lot) and he never tries to make the character likable in any way. Because there’s no hero and no one to root for, and because at times the film insists we get a little too close and personal with Pupkin, some will be put off. Yet it’s one of Scorsese’s most original and fascinating films, giving viewers much to consider on the subject of celebrity. Its inevitable climax is clever and quietly horrific. –Christopher J. Jarmick
