John Cassavetes’ devastating drama details the emotional breakdown of a suburban housewife and her family’s struggle to save her from herself. Starring Peter Falk and Gena Rowlands (in two of the most harrowing screen performances of the 1970s) as a married couple deeply in love yet unable to express that love in terms the other can understand, the film is an uncompromising portrait of domestic turmoil. One of the benchmark films of American independent cinema — an heroic document from a true maverick director.

Cassavetes vuelve a plasmar con inigualable fuerza el retrato y los sentimientos de una mujer, un ama de casa mentalmente inestable con continuos cambios de humor que bordean la enfermedad. Falk es su marido, un trabajador que trata de comprenderla, pero que se enfrenta a un problema que se ve incapaz de resolver.

Maverick ha diciassette anni e vive a Garden Hights, un quartiere ghetto della grande città, e la vita non è facile. Se vuoi sopravvivere devi entrare in una delle due gang che controllano il Garden: i King Lords o i Garden Disciples. Per Maverick la scelta è stata automatica: suo padre era il capo dei King Lords prima di entrare in carcere e lui ne ha seguito le orme, per tutti è Li'l Don, il piccolo Don. Per lui i King Lords sono una grande famiglia guidata da suo cugino Dre e le cose tutto sommato non gli vanno male, tra la scuola, gli amici e qualche lavoretto per la sua gang, mentre sua madre tenta di convincerlo a fare qualcosa di utile per il suo futuro. Ma le cose stanno per cambiare e la vita lo metterà di fronte a una serie di scelte difficili che lo obbligheranno a riconsiderare le persone che lo circondano, e a cercare dentro di sé la forza per iniziare un percorso di cambiamento che un giorno lo renderà una persona migliore.

Cinematic magician, legendary provocateur, author of the infamous HOLLYWOOD BABYLON books and creator of some of the most striking and beautiful works in the history of film, Kenneth Anger is a singular figure in post-war American culture. A major influence on everything from the films of Martin Scorsese, Rainer Werner Fassbinder and David Lynch to the pop art of Andy Warhol to MTV, Anger's work serves as a talisman of universal symbols and personal obsessions, combining myth, artifice and ritual to render cinema with the power of spell or incantation.

A monumental innovator, icon, and maverick, trumpeter Miles Davis helped define the course of jazz as well as popular culture in the 20th century, bridging the gap between bebop, modal music, funk, and fusion. Throughout most of his 50-year career, Davis played the trumpet in a lyrical, introspective style, often employing a stemless Harmon mute to make his sound more personal and intimate. It was a style that, along with his brooding stage persona, earned him the nickname "Prince of Darkness." However, Davis proved to be a dazzlingly protean artist, moving into fiery modal jazz in the '60s and electrified funk and fusion in the '70s, drenching his trumpet in wah-wah pedal effects along the way.

Out of the Blue captures the turbulence of youth culture of the early '80s by presenting a three-person nuclear family that is about to implode. In a prologue, Don Barnes (Dennis Hopper), a school bus driver, is drunkenly distracted one day behind the wheel, resulting in a horrible accident. He comes home from a stint in prison to find his wife, Kathy (Sharon Farrell), hooked on drugs and his now-teenaged daughter, Cindy (Linda Manz), sullen and remote. Don's old buddies are a fun-loving bunch who work only to afford to get high and party, and he seems to be falling back into his old ways instead of getting straight and pulling his family out of their funk…..

"The Owl Service" è una fiaba del 1967 di Alan Garner che parla di una donna nata dai fiori e creata da un mago. Da questa novella molto nota in Galles ha preso il nome del suo gruppo Steven Collins, amante spassionato di film e televisione britannica oltre che cultore incredibile del magico suono del folk revival inglese. Esordisce con un disco splendido quale "A garland of song" (2007) seguito da "The View From a Hill" (2010), altro gioiellino, per proseguire con svariati eps e progetti paralleli che lo vedono sempre coinvolto in prima persona o in tandem con leggende del folk d'Albione quali Alison O'Donnell nel mini disco "The fabric of folk", lei è una delle voci dei Mellow Candle, un favoloso album per la Deram a nome "Swaddling Songs" (1972). Questi due dischi si rifanno alle ballads ed ai traditionals di terra d'Inghilterra, pesantemente omaggiate nei settanta da bands storiche quali la santa trinità formata da Fairport Convention, Pentangle e Steeleye Span e da tutti i gruppi minori, in teoria, del cosiddetto sottobosco musicale.
