This collection of 36 animated shorts trail Duke, Doonesbury's Reform Party presidential candidate, on the 2000 campaign. Through Trudeau's signature political satire, DUKE 2000 shows an unfocussed, bizarre character on a campaign marked by outrageous incidents that unfold privately and in public.

Larry King, Today, and other popular TV programs. It often feels like an animated version of Tim Robbins' campaign spoof BOB ROBERTS.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

PROJECT GREENLIGHT is a 13-part HBO series that began when Ben Affleck and Matt Damon sponsored an internet competition among unknown screenwriters. Vowing to produce one film with the resources Miramax films put at their disposal, Mr. Affleck and Mr. Damon weeded through 10,000 screenplay entries and, along with some other Miramax producers, decided to give the greenlight to Pete Jones' STOLEN SUMMER. The majority of the series depicts Mr. Jones' trials and travails working with a cast, crew, and budget for the first time, which proves to be far more difficult than he could have imagined. The series is a joy to watch. It's a SURVIVOR for the fledgling filmmaker, though some of Mr. Jones cast and crew are far more treacherous and engaging than anyone on that show. A dramatic, compelling, and funny look at the making of a low budget studio film, PROJECT GREENLIGHT is not only an excellent television series, it's also a great primer for anyone interested in making their own movie. This boxed set includes Pete Jones's finished feature, STOLEN SUMMER.

Primary (DVD) Primary (DVD) » Primary (DVD)

In 1960, former Life magazine correspondent Robert Drew changed the face of documentary filmmaking when he introduced the first of his powerful films about President John F. Kennedy. Utilizing a small portable camera and sync sound recorder for the first time ever, Drew and his team of cameramen--nascent documentarians Richard Leacock, Terrence McCartney Filgate, Albert Maysles, and D.A. Pennebaker--went on the road with the then-Senator from Massachusetts during the height of his 1960 Democratic primary run against Hubert Humphrey in Wisconsin. Unlike the directed and narrated documentaries of the day, Drew's uniquely mobile cameras moved with their subjects and captured the action as it unfolded, allowing for an unparalleled immediacy never before seen on film. The resulting documentary, PRIMARY, is considered one of the most groundbreaking moments in cinema history--not only for ushering in the the revolutionary movement known as cinema verite, but also for being an intimate portrait of both Kennedy and the American political experience.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Audio: Dolby Digital Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Audio Commentary - 1.

Timothy Leary's Last Trip (DVD) Timothy Leary's Last Trip (DVD) » Timothy Leary's Last Trip (DVD)

The long, strange trip of Dr. Timothy Leary, alternately lionized and despised as the High Priest of 1960s LSD subculture, has inspired generations in search of self-discovery and expanded consciousness. This authorized documentary of Leary's life pays homage to Leary and other'60s counterculture personalities such as Ken Kesey and the Merry Pranksters--who inspired Tom Wolfe's THE ELECTRIC KOOL-AID ACID TEST--and Acid Test house band The Grateful Dead. Like other films that deal with the work of iconoclastic American heroes, such as WILLIAM S. BURROUGHS: COMMISSIONER OF SEWERS and GROWING UP IN AMERICA--spotlighting'60s political radicals like Abbie Hoffman and Jerry Rubin--this film offers testament to the power of revolutionary thought.LAST TRIP recounts Leary's early life, from his schooling at West Point and his tenure as a Harvard professor, to the university and government experiments that prompted his research into LSD and other hallucinogens. Centering on Leary's relationships with key figures in the heyday of the drug era, archival footage and interviews chronicle the famous bus trip that first brought Leary and Kesey together. Insightful interviews with Leary toward the end of his life (he died of cancer in 1996), show that he dealt with terminal illness in a manner as colorful as the era with which he will be forever linked.DVD Features:Region 0Keep CaseAdditional Release Materials: Theatrical TrailerInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus
