7.1 Сюжет (англ.)
Part documentary, part narrative fiction, part home movie, and part acid trip. A psychedelic whirlwind of snapshots, Super-8 home movies, old answering machine messages, video diaries, early short films, snippets of '80s pop culture, and dramatic reenactments to create an epic portrait of an American family travesty. The story begins in 2003 when Jonathan learns that his schizophrenic mother, Renee, has overdosed on her lithium medication. He is catapulted back into his real and horrifying family legacy of rape, abandonment, promiscuity, drug addiction, child abuse, and psychosis. As he grows up on camera, he finds the escapist balm of musical theater and B horror flicks and reconnects to life through a queer chosen family. Then a look into the future shows Jonathan as he confronts the symbiotic and almost unbearable love he shares with his beautiful and tragically damaged mother.

Сюжет (англ.)
Ayn Rand was born in 1905 in St. Petersberg, Russia. She escaped to America in 1926 amidst the rise of Soviet Communism. She remained in the United States for the rest of her life, where she became a much respected author of The Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged. The themes of freedom and individualism were to be her life's passion, and would win her a devoted following among readers. Her books continue to sell over 300,000 copies each year. Upon her arrival in America, Ayn Rand applied for a screenwriting position at the DeMille Studios in Hollywood. On that same day, a chance meeting with DeMille brought her to the set of The King of Kings where she was hired as an extra for the film. But, it wasn't until her 1936 Broadway success, Night of January 16th, that she first achieved fame as a writer. The play, a courtroom drama that was tried before a jury drawn from the audience each night, had two endings for each verdict. Although a success, it was Ayn's first struggle to keep the integrity of her script intact from those who did not share her vision.

Ken Burns, the premiere documentarian of Americana, tackles the life of Mark Twain, the first writer with a uniquely American voice. In this installment in Burns' "American Lives" series, the two 2-hour episodes explore a side of Twain that is unfamiliar to many. Widely regarded as the funniest person of the 19th century, Twain suffered through severe personal tragedies and lack of business sense that brought him to the brink of financial ruin on several occasions. Includes interviews with writers William Styron and Arthur Miller and actor Hal Holbrook (who has portrayed Twain in a one-man play each year for over 50 years).

Сюжет
Це розповідь про великого майстра східних єдиноборств Брюса Лі. Багато хто думає, що він просто борець, але він і чудовий актор, щоб у цьому переконатися треба подивитися чудові фільми за його участю. Безліч людей відзначали, крім усього іншого, його мудрість, уміння філософствувати й те, що він був чудовим учителем не лише боротьби, а й акторської майстерності. Цей чоловік умів віджиматися на одному пальці, звалити будь-кого своїм знаменитим однодюймовим ударом, чудово підтягувався, чудово бігав і мав прекрасну накачену постать, якій заздрили навіть атлети. Недарма люди, після перегляду його фільмів, навіть дорослі, починали завзято качати м'язи й навіть, і це достовірний факт, бити по стіні, думаючи, що її проломлять. Пройшло близько сорока років, і люди досі з благоговінням переглядають вже вкотре його фільми, та й багато молоді Брюс Лі - кумир номер один. Ряди його фанатів постійно ширяться, це зрозуміло, оскільки Брюс Лі – герой свого і не лише часу.

He was considered the lowest common denominator of our society by some, an avant-garde artist by others. He died of an overdose in the early 90's.

Жили якось на світі два прості американські хлопці - один експериментував з ЛСД, інший любив грати в покер. Один з них був хіппі і вважав себе Великим Художником, інший був простим очкариком і зовсім не крутим. Обидва і року не проучилися в Університеті. Але в результаті обидва стали геніальними комп’ютерщиками. Очкарик став багатющою людиною Америки і одним з впливових людей в світі бізнесу, вкравши славу і ім'я у Великого Художника. Ім'я Великого Художника - Стів Джобс - пам'ятають його небагато хто, ім'я Очкарика - Біл Гейтс - у всих на вустах.

Narrated by Sydney Pollack, film critic Richard Schickel's dazzling two-hour plus documentary to one of the towering figures in film: Charles Chaplin. Hardcore Chaplin fans may not find much new material here, but more unfamiliar admirers will gain some valuable information about one of the most famous personalities of the 20th century. Schickel has constructed the documentary as a chronological survey of Chaplin's work, starting with his most significant shorts and covering all of his features. Schickel supports his narration with testimony from artists familiar with Chaplin's work and family members who offer personal insights into the comedian's life. The documentary plays down but doesn't ignore the controversies that swirled around Chaplin's private life. But the main focus is on the films. They include some of the best-loved movies of all time. Clips from "Kid Auto Races at Venice," the 1914 Keystone short in which Chaplin first used his Tramp costume, reveal a startlingly modern technique and sensibility, as if the filmmakers were predicting and mocking reality TV. Subsequent shorts show Chaplin refining his 'Little Tramp' character while absorbing the essentials of filmmaking. By the time he made "Easy Street," in 1917, Chaplin had perfected a combination of knockabout farce and Victorian sentiment that still proves irresistible. Chaplin's early features, including "The Kid," "The Gold Rush" and "City Lights," were such blockbuster hits that he could essentially ignore the coming of sound for almost a decade. Those making appearances on the program include Woody Allen, Richard Attenborough, Jeanine Basinger, Claire Bloom, Geraldine Chaplin. Sydney Chaplin, Johnny Depp, Robert Downey Jr., Milos Forman, Bill Irwin, Norman Lloyd, Marcel Marceau, David Raksin, David Robinson, Andrew Sarris, Martin Scorsese and Jeffrey Vance.

This documentary focuses on the lives of professional wrestlers Terry Funk, Mick Foley (Mankind), Jake Roberts (Jake the Snake) and Darren Drozdov (Droz). As the film progresses, the story of their lives unfolds, as we also learn how the wrestling industry is not the plastic-weapons fake-slap sideshow that many have perceived it as. We are shown how moves, although not actually injuring anyone, are not fake, and extreme training is required to be able to perform the stunts without being harmed. We are also treated to interviews with the family of Mick Foley and what it is like for them to know their father literally puts his life on the line every week and how it feels to have other children call their father a "fake". Vince McMahon, owner of World Wrestling Entertainment, also makes a few appearances, responding to criticism on various wrestling situations, including, once again, his real athletes, very real organization being called fake by sources such as USA Today and various news programs.

Розповідь про історію воєн 20-го століття від одного з найбільш контроверсійних і впливових персонажів світової політики, колишнього міністра оборони США Роберта С. Макнамари. Чому минуле століття було настільки насичене війнами і катастрофами? Чи справді людство приречене на вчинення однакових помилок? Починаючи з бомбардування 100 тисяч мирних жителів Токіо в 1945 році і закінчуючи жахливими наслідками в'єтнамської війни, Туман війни намагається проаналізувати хід думок світових лідерів, що посилають людей на війну.

Розповідь про історію воєн 20-го століття від одного з найбільш контроверсійних і впливових персонажів світової політики, колишнього міністра оборони США Роберта С. Макнамари. Чому минуле століття було настільки насичене війнами і катастрофами? Чи справді людство приречене на вчинення однакових помилок? Починаючи з бомбардування 100 тисяч мирних жителів Токіо в 1945 році і закінчуючи жахливими наслідками в'єтнамської війни, Туман війни намагається проаналізувати хід думок світових лідерів, що посилають людей на війну.
Сюжет
Фрідмани були нормальною, середнього класу сім'єю, що живе в багатому Нью-йоркському передмісті Грет Нек. Одного разу в день подяки, коли сім'я зібралася в будинку для святкового обіду, їх двері раптово розлетілися на шматки і будинок наповнився поліцейськими. Вони обвинуватили Арнольда Фрідмана і його молодшого сина Джесі в сотнях шокуючих злочинів. Фільм описує їх історію поглядом зі сторони і за допомогою унікальних матеріалів, знятих в сім'ї Фрідманов під час кризи.
