Buy it now! (Was $24.95, Now $19.96)

Buy it now! (Was $24.95, Now $19.96)

FLAK - A short film by Ron Mann
Buy it now! (Was $9.99, Now $7)

"It cannot be doubted that we live in a complacent time..."

So says the introduction to this recently re-released work of angry, political drama, which Ron Mann made when he was just 16 years old.

In 1970s Toronto, a group of young men living in the shadows of a gypsum plant discuss the political options available to average citizens in a post-1960s world. To combat the befouling of their air, some advocate for "proper channels," others for bombs. Through raw, 16mm black-and-white footage of heated arguments, distractions and daily routines, and with a mournful soundtrack, Mann gives us a portrait of political frustration from 30 years ago which looks eerily like a cross-section of the same attitudes and issues that fuel today's headlines.

MID-AUGUST LUNCH - DVD / Buy it now! ($24.99)
The charismatic Gianni Di Gregorio (co-writer of the smash hit "Gomorrah), stars in his directorial debut - an utterly charming tale of great food, feisty ladies and unlikely friendships during a very Roman holiday.

Broke, and armed with only a glass of wine and a wry snese of humour, middle-aged Gianni resides with his 93-year-old mother in their ancient apartment. The condo debts are mounting, but if Gianni looks after the building manager's mother during the "Pranzo di Ferragosto" (Italy's biggest summer holiday, and the Feast of the Assumption), all will be forgiven. Then the manager also shows up with an auntie, and then a doctor friend appears with his mother in tow... Can Gianni keep four such lively mamas well fed and happy in these cramped quarters?

DVD / Buy it now! ($24.99)

Canadian-made experimental flick featuring a groundbreaking potpourri of live action and animation, backed by a rollicking soundtrack of 1960s hits.

As portrayed by Kupferberg, there’s no messing with this Yahweh who’d just as soon enjoy a blow job from an inflatable schmoo as mastermind a presidential election from the cozy confines of his bathtub in Hashish Seventh Heaven, where a cast of pipe-dreaming souls journeys to be reborn.

All hell breaks loose when the angel of the Lord attempts to cover up his failure to avert the sacrifice of young Isaac by his father, Abraham.
BILL CUNNINGHAM NEW YORK
A film by Richard Press
DVD / Buy it now! ($24.99)

“We all get dressed for Bill,” says Vogue editrix Anna Wintour. The “Bill” in question is 80+ New York Times photographer Bill Cunningham. For decades, this Schwinn-riding cultural anthropologist has been obsessively and inventively chronicling fashion trends and high society charity soirées for the New York Times Style section in his columns “On the Street” and “Evening Hours.”

Documenting uptown fixtures, downtown eccentrics and everyone in between, Cunningham’s enormous body of work is more reliable than any catwalk as an expression of time, place and individual flair. In turn, Bill Cunningham New York is a delicate, funny and often poignant portrait of a dedicated artist whose only wealth is his own humanity and unassuming grace.
CONAN O'BRIEN CAN'T STOP
A film by Richard Press
DVD and Blu Ray Buy it now! ($24.99 & $29.99)

After a much–publicized departure from hosting NBC’s Tonight Show - and the severing of a 22-year relationship with the network – O’Brien hit the road with a 32-city music-and-comedy show to exercise his performing chops and exorcise a few demons. The “Legally Prohibited From Being Funny on Television” tour was O’Brien’s answer to a contractual stipulation that banned his appearance on television, radio and the Internet for six months following his last show.

LISTEN TO THE CITY
A film by Ron Mann
DVD / Buy it now! ($24.99)

Made during the re-election year of Ronald Reagan, the election year of Prime Minister Brian Mulroney and the very beginnings of the shattering saving and loan scandal that would come to look like candy store shoplifting a generation on, Ron Mann's rare early non-documentary movie is like a downtown artist's poster collage of DIY urgency: from the opening sequence, in which the poet/punk Jim Carroll rises like Lazarus from his hospital bed and takes to the streets with a vertical IV drip and a message about better days, to the ensuing satirical depiction of a corporation coldly deciding to cut the unprofitable heart out of the city it calls home, the movie plays as fearless, street-art inspired pastiche: part experimental polemic, part political cartoon, part video art installation, part performance prank.
BUCK
A film by Cindy Meehl
DVD / Buy it now! ($24.99)

Your horse is a mirror to your soul, and sometimes you may not like what you see. Sometimes, you will.” So says Buck Brannaman, a true American cowboy and sage on horseback who travels the country for nine grueling months a year helping horses with people problems.

BUCK, a richly textured and visually stunning film, follows Brannaman from his abusive childhood to his phenomenally successful approach to horses. A real-life “horse-whisperer”, he eschews the violence of his upbringing and teaches people to communicate with their horses through leadership and sensitivity, not punishment.
BEAUTY DAY
A film by Jay Cheel
DVD / Buy it now! ($24.99)

Ralph Zavadil’s cable access television show, The Cap’n Video Show, ran from 1990 to 1995, spawning a small but loyal cult following. Each week Ralph performed a series of idiotic and occasionally dangerous stunts, challenging the sensibilities of his small town audience. With the advent of the Internet and reality television still years away, his unique brand of gross-out stunt comedy was truly ahead of its time.

After a run-in with the law and a dangerous stunt gone wrong, Ralph found himself ceremoniously pulled off the air. Now, fifteen years and a few grey hairs later, the Cap’n is back! This time around, he’s teaming up with his best friend Robert to film the Cap’n Video Show’s 20th anniversary special. Armed with a handful of fireworks and some gasoline for good measure, Ralph takes a nostalgic journey that’s “a reflection on what drives us to pursue our passions and life life to its fullest” - Torontoist
