Bob Dylan: Don't Look Back
1967 96mins USA (15) Documentary
Directed by D. A. Pennebaker Starring Bob Dylan, Albert Grossman, Bob Neuwirth

Bob Dylan is captured on-screen as he never would be again in this groundbreaking film from D. A. Pennebaker. The legendary documentarian finds Dylan in England during his 1965 tour, which would be his last as an acoustic artist. In this wildly entertaining vision of one of the twentieth century's greatest artists, Dylan is surrounded by teen fans, gets into heated philosophical jousts with journalists, and kicks back with fellow musicians Joan Baez, Donovan, and Alan Price. Featuring some of Dylan's most famous songs, including “Subterranean Homesick Blues,” “The Times They Are A-Changin',” and “It's All Over Now, Baby Blue,” Dont Look Back is a radically conceived portrait of an American icon that has influenced decades of vérité behind-the-scenes documentaries.

Metallica: Cliff 'Em All
90mins (18) Metallica Day
Directed by Doug Freel|Jean Pellerin Starring Cliff Burton, Kirk Hammett, James Hetfield

Originally issued on VHS only in 1987 (the DVD came in 1999), the first video Metallica video release serves as a tribute to late original bassist Cliff Burton and is of great tribute to the incredible talent and truly unique personality that he was. “Cliff ‘Em All” is a raw collection of performances from 1983 to 1986, and has the distinction of being the only “official” DVD/video release featuring the genius playing of Burton. Moreover, Dave Mustaine appears on a few songs and there is some great narration by the remaining band members, as well as some interviews with the band. Most of the footage is from bootleg videos, home videos and there is some stuff shot for TV that was never aired, and the overall quality is very poor (shot in the pre-iPhone era!), but it captures in a brilliant way an early Metallica era. Tracks: Creeping Death, Am I Evil ?, Damage, Inc., Master Of Puppets, Whiplash, The Four Horsemen, Fade To Black, Seek & Destroy, Welcome Home (Sanitarium), For Whom The Bell Tolls, No Remorse, Metal Militia

Metallica: Cunning Stunts
130mins (18) Metallica Day
Directed by Wayne Isham Starring James Hetfield, Lars Ulrich, Kirk Hammett

Released in 1998, “Cunning Stunts” was filmed in Fort Worth, Texas on May 9-10 1997 during the “Poor Touring Me” Tours that promoted “Load” (and eventually “Re-Load”). This was an era where Metallica continued to push boundaries musically as well a with their concert experience they delivered for fans, as evidenced here in this film. It would be the first project the band shot in hi-def specifically for DVD, and the outstanding picture and sound quality combined with some amazing pyrotechnics and a 360 degree stage in the middle of the arena make this an unforgettable performance. Tracks: So What, Creeping Death, Sad But True, Ain't My Bitch, Hero Of The Day, King Nothing, One, Fuel, Bass/Guitar Doodle, Nothing Else Matters, Until It Sleeps, For Whom The Bell Tolls, Wherever I May Roam, Fade To Black, Medley (Ride The Lightning, No Remorse, Hit The Lights, The Four Horsemen, Seek & Destroy, Fight Fire With Fire), Last Caress, Master of Puppets, Enter Sandman, Am I Evil?, Motorbreath.

We Are Fugazi From Washington, DC
96mins (15) nondocumentary
Directed by Jeff Krulik|Joe Gross|Joseph Pattisall

Created to commemorate the 20 years that have passed since DC-based post-hardcore band Fugazi’s last live appearance (November 4, 2002, at The Forum in London), We Are Fugazi from Washington, D.C. is a 96-minute movie comprising crowd sourced, fan recorded live shows and rare archive footage of Fugazi curated by Joe Gross, Joseph Pattisall and Jeff Krulik.

 

Explicitly billed as a nondocumentary (tHISiSNOTaFUGAZIdOCUMENTARY,) the film pays tribute to Fugazi’s prowess as a live act — for old fans to remember and for a new generation to discover what they missed. This unique archival assemblage celebrates the fans and their cameras, as much as the band itself — a collision/ collusion of the ephemeral moment on stage, and the moments captured on camera.
