Academy Award Winner - Best Documentary Feature"One of the most powerful, carefully researched investigations of the moral-legal side effects of current American military campaigns in Afghanistan and Iraq." - Boston Globe
From the director of "Enron" The Smartest Guys in the Room." Alex Gibney's Taxi to the Darkside is a gripping investigation into the reckless abuse of power by the Bush Administration. By probing the homicide of an innocent taxi driver at the Bagram Air Force Base in Afghanistan, the film exposes a worldwide policy of detention and interrogation that condones torture and the abrogation of human rights. This disturbing and often brutal film is the most incisive examination to date of the Bush Administration's willingness, in its prosecution of the "war on terror," to undermine the essence of the rule of law. The film asks and answers a key question: what happens when a few men expand the wartime powers of the executive to undermine the very principles on which the United States was founded.

"Revolutionary, heartbreaking and laugh-out-loud funny. Absolutely not to be missed." - Seattle Magazine"The act of picking up a guitar and making some noise becomes a life-changing experience in "Girls Rock!," an irresistible new documentary from filmmakers Arne Johnson and Shane King...every girl between the ages of 8 and 18 should be required to check it out." Chicago Sun-Times
The Rock 'n' Roll Camp for Girls is a place where 8-18 year olds come from all over the country to learn Rock DIY-style--forming bands, writing songs and building community, and "Girls Rock!" is the movie about their journey.
Series: The 45th New York Film Festival (Sep. 28 - Oct 14 2007)
Director: Murray Lerner, Country: USA, Release: 2007, Runtime: 80min
Showtimes:
Saturday, May 24 | 2:30pm, 4:30pm, 6:30pm & 8:30pm
Filmmaker Murray Lerner captured the spirit of the era at the Newport Folk Festival, as well as the extraordinary music produced on its stage, in his woefully neglected Festival. Now Lerner has gone back to his Newport footage and crafted a revealing portrait of the young Bob Dylan during the crucial period of 1963-65, as he grows progressively darker and more withdrawn and he and his band take their first steps toward rock and roll. The film features stirring versions of some of his most famous songs, including some legendary duets with Joan Baez. A great document of an extraordinary artist.
