This documentary, made over a period of eight years, tells the remarkable story of an extremely influential rock’n’roll band. Starting from their mid-60’s garage band roots (sounding amazingly like the Sonics), the Motor City 5 deveoped into an icon for a brand of loud, crushing music reflecting their industrial roots. Even if you don’t care for their music (and you’re bound to like even a few of their songs), their story is fascinating. It combines 60’s protest, youthful braggadocio, and a style of music that would help carry one to the likes of Iggy and the Stooges (not to mention certain aspects of punk rock). This film is clearly a labor of love, combining extraordinarily rare live shows, still shots, a nearly-continuous backdrop of MC5 tunes, penetrating interviews with the remaining members and their spouses, and even FBI surveillance shots. It’s the ultimate testimonial to a band that only gains in stature as time goes on.

Neil Young Birthday Celebration: Live Tribute Set & screening of Rust Never Sleeps Singer/songwriter Neil Young is sometimes visionary, sometimes flaky, sometimes both at once, but he has never been boring. Indeed, Neil Young has weathered runs of critical and popular ambivalence only to be vindicated by being periodically "rediscovered" by young musicians and fans. He has maintained a large following since the early '70s with music in three basic styles — solo acoustic ballads, sweet country rock, and lumbering garage rock (with some experimental music side trips), all topped by his high voice — and he veers from one to another in unpredictable phases. His subject matter also shifts from personal confessions to allusive stories to bouncy throwaways. A dedicated primitivist, Young is constantly proving that simplicity is not always simple. Rust Never Sleeps is a concert film shot on Neil Young's 1978 U.S. tour, filmed at the Cow Palace in San Francisco. Divided into two segments, acoustic and electric, the film is Young at his best, shown just why the grunge generation holds him in such high esteem, and that not all 60's heroes were burnt out by the mid-70's.

In a small town by the sea lives five year old Sosuke, high on a cliff overlooking the Inland Sea. One morning while playing on the rocky beach below his house, he discovers a goldfish he names Ponyo, her head stuck in a jam jar. Sosuke rescues Ponyo and keeps her in a green plastic bucket. Both Ponyo and Sosuke are fascinated by each other and promise to stay firm friends until Ponyo’s father, a sorcerer who lives deep under the sea, forces her to return with him to the ocean depths. What follows is an amazing underwater adventure for all ages... PONYO is a substantially lighter and smaller in scope feature when compared to Miyazaki’s previous two works. The film was completed entirely using traditional hand-drawn animation, primarily in order to showcase the quality of the artwork by art director Noboru Yoshida as well as celebrating the innocence and cheerfulness of a child’s universe.
