With the German forces occupying much of Europe in 1943, drastic measures were taken by the Allies. Flying at a low level, the British RAF and the United States 8th Air Force ran dangerous missions at crucial German military targets. These brave missions known as the Dambusters Raid would prove to be a decisive series of offensive attacks. Using archival footage and interviews, this documentary delves into these incredibly important bombing raids.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Single Side - Dual Layer

In the late 1970s Scott Jacobs, armed with new technology, set out to record images of America.
The equipment he used was one of the first video cameras, a black and white portapak, and he filmed the working lives of ordinary Americans who he would discover had fascinating stories. His segments appeared on AMERICA IN BLACK& WHITE, and this collection of Jacobs' work comprises the best of his pieces. Jacobs' nonfiction studies have a striking similarity to radio's THIS AMERICAN LIFE and the anecdotal writings of David Sedaris. These journalistic shorts study such diverse working Americans as a baker, a gambler, a politician, and a department store Santa.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Single Side - Dual Layer

It`s all about taking freestyle to the back roads in this breathtaking documentary that does for snowboarding what films like DOGTOWN AND Z-BOYS (2001) did for skateboarding or THE ENDLESS SUMMER (1966) did for surfing. Documentary filmmakers Kemp Curly and Kevin Harrison capture a once-in-a-lifetime event: five major-league snowboard professionals meeting up to make their first descents down some staggeringly steep peaks in Alaska. They span three decades in their ages: there`s the pioneers, Shawn Farmer and Nick Peralta; esteemed Norwegian master Terje Haakonsen; and X-Games superstar Shaun White and top-flight girl snowboarder Hannah Teter. The latter two are each only 18 here and getting their first taste of the unexplored Alaska wilderness. Narrated by Henry Rollins, the film captures the easygoing camaraderie of these amazing athletes as they prepare to be lifted up in helicopters to the top of the world, outracing avalanches and plunging down straight-faced gorges. There`s lots of gorgeous Alaskan vistas, great party footage, and a heart-pumping soundtrack that includes songs by Beck, Queens of the Stone Age, Thunderball, Ursula 1000, Jets to Brazil, Rival Schools, and Minor Threat. There are also interview appearances from snowboard titans like Mike Basich, Tina Basich, Todd Richards, Tom Sims, and Andy Finch. Snowboarding junkies will be in 360-degree heaven with this documentary, and newcomers should relish the chance to catch up with the backstory of the amazing sport, including its origins, the wild and crazy early years, the initial hostility between boarders and skiers, the emergence of the half-pipe, and the triumphant arrival of the sport into the Olympics.
