Anarchism in America
starring: Paul Avrich, Jello Biafra, Murray Bookchin, Karl Hess
directed by: Joel Sucher, Steven Fischler
June 06, 2006
starring: Paul Avrich, Jello Biafra, Murray Bookchin, Karl Hess
directed by: Joel Sucher, Steven Fischler
Two fascinating documentaries on one disc! In the first, Anarchism in America, the filmmakers take a road trip to map anarchism as a distinctly American tradition, interviewing a diverse cast of characters: from “ordinary” truckers and farmers to famous anarchists like Kenneth Rexroth and Ursula LeGuin. The second, The Free Voice of Labor, traces the history of the Yiddish anarchist newspaper of that name—publishing it’s final issue after 87 years—as told by it’s now elderly, but decidedly unbowed staff.
Steven Fishler and Joel Sucher, since studying with Martin Scorsese in 1969, have been making Emmy- and Guggenheim award-winning nonfiction films that explore American social history.

Antarctica - An Adventure of a Different Nature (Large Format)
starring: Alex Scott
directed by: John Weiley
True to the IMAX tradition, Antarctica is replete with breathtaking aerial and underwater footage of the earth's highest, coldest, and driest continent. Most folks' TVs are 4,500 times smaller than an IMAX screen--too small to duplicate the acrophobic-stomach sensation that is the hallmark of the IMAX in-theater experience. All the same, like most IMAX movies, Antarctica has some of the best production values on film today. The story begins with a flock of penguins above--and below--water, and moves to gargantuan underwater ice sheets and then to a look at Antarctic climatic changes. Watch scientists locate and extract ancient ice to analyze preserved bubbles of ancient air, as well. Explorer Robert Scott makes an important contribution with his appealing voice and serene, well-articulated narrative. The DVD's special features include Spanish and French language tracks, subtitling, and Internet links if you use the disc on your computer. --Erik Macki
