6.5 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.

A documentary look, mostly through the eyes of Tammy Faye Bakker Messner, at her rise and fall as a popular televangelist with husband Jim Bakker. Traces their rise: her teen marriage to Jim; their children's TV show (she was a puppeteer and singer), success founding the 700 Club, co-founding the Trinity Broadcast Network, and starting PTL Network; her nondenominational version of Christianity reaching out to all; and, their building of Heritage USA, a theme park. Things fall apart as money woes mount for Heritage and for Jim, as Tammy takes pills, and as Jerry Falwell takes PTL. Jim goes to prison; she remarries, finds herself alone again, yet remains unsinkable.

A long look at John Cassavetes's films, life (1929-1989), and exploration of how people love. The documentary is composed of Cassavetes's words spoken by an off-screen narrator, clips from his films, photos and clips of him on and off the set, and family, friends, and colleagues talking about his films and what it was like to work with him. The movie explores his focus on emotion, the way he drew out actors, his collaborative process, his energy and joie de vivre, his serious purposes, and the meaning and lasting impact of his work: how adults behave, interact, and seek love rather than how a plot works out.

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.

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.

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.
