A spectacular musical made for Showtime, and based on the most infamous propaganda film ever, REEFER MADNESS is a hilarious, campy extravaganza with glorious performances turned in by an all-star cast. A straitlaced youth, Jimmy Harper (Christian Campbell), is seduced by the irresistible new drug, marijuana, and soon his girlfriend, Mary (Kristin Bell), proves equally unable to withstand its lure. While Jimmy starts down a path of crime and murder, Mary taps into her debaucherous side, and develops an insatiable sexual appetite. Stunning costumes and dance sequences are accompanied by witty dialogue in a staging that is as irresistible as the drug itself. Co-starring are Neve Campbell (SCREAM), Alan Cumming (X-2), Steven Weber (TIMECODE), and Ana Gasteyer (SATURDAY NIGHT LIVE, MEAN GIRLS).

This exciting concert, performed by Joseph and Anthony Paratore on two pianos, features four groundbreaking works by twentieth century composers. Igor Stravinsky's revolutionary piece The Rite of Spring caused an uproar when it was originally presented both because of its harsh polyrhythms and dissonant use of the orchestra as well as because it was originally a ballet! George Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue and Concerto in F are two of the most popular pieces by an American composer for orchestra, and are one of the first classical compositions to be influenced by jazz. Charles Ives was one of the most influential and idiosyncratic American composers during his lifetime. His iconoclastic and rarely performed work Three Quarter Tone Pieces is featured as a tribute to Ives and his musical vision.DVD Features:Region 1 EncodingAudio CommentaryLiner NotesGlossary of TermsPerformer ProfilesHistorical Markers for the PiecesKeep Case
