Legendary beat poet William S. Burroughs has influenced dozens of important bohemian artists throughout his career. The writer-artist was thought dangerous by the status quo for, among other things, his advocacy of drug use and vivid descriptions of life as a heroin junkie. FINAL ACADEMY DOCUMENTS includes footage of some of Burroughs' readings at Manchester's famed Hacienda Club. In addition, some of his little seen experimental films, including Ghosts at Number 9 and Towers Open Fire, are featured.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33

Cane Toads: An Unnatural History (DVD) Cane Toads: An Unnatural History (DVD) » Cane Toads: An Unnatural History (DVD)

When the Cane Toad was imported from Hawaii into Australia to help with the Greyback beetle problem, the fellows who masterminded the experiment soon found that they had made a major mistake. While it is true that Cane Toads will eat the beetles, it is incredibly hard for them to catch any, seeing as the beetles can easily fly away whenever a toad approaches. So, the toads, without any natural predators quickly multiplied and have been a bane to northern Queensland ever since. A raucous documentary featuring passionate testimonials from both pro and anti toad Aussies as well as a number of amazing staged sequences in which the toads wreak havoc on unsuspecting Australians, CANE TOADS is a hugely entertaining and fascinating film.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseFull FrameAudio: Stereo - EnglishAdditional Release Material: Bonus Short - 1.Signing OffInteractive Features: Scene Access Interactive Menus Interactive Guide to the Cane Toad

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.
