LEARN THE MUSIC is a recipe for success straight from the mouths of the experts, namely, those who found success for themselves within the cutthroat music industry. Featuring interviews with patron saint of intelligent rap Talib Kweli, garage punk sensation The Donnas, and country music princess Jessica Andrews, the stars give the scoop on their practicing habits, as well as how they started their bands and got to where they are today. The Used struggled to fulfill their ambition, with tales of how they were pitted against bouts of homelessness and drug abuse making their story particularly poignant; Texas power pop quartet Bowling for Soup round out the bill. Audiences can also learn how to play songs from these artists, receiving instruction on bass, drum, vocals, and guitar on songs such as Sucker Punch by Bowling for Soup, There's More to Me than You by Jessica Andrews, Maybe Memories by the Used, and On the Rocks by the Donnas. Also included is an interview addressing how to become a successful DJ.

A joyous musical that outdoes its Hollywood predecessors with naive romance, decadent art direction and an appearance by the legendary Gene Kelly, THE YOUNG GIRLS OF ROCHEFORT, a follow up to Demy's previous collaboration with Catherine Deneuve and composer Michel Legrand, is entirely sung. A pair of sisters (Deneuve and her real life sister Francoise Dorleac) who teach and compose music in the French town of Rochefort seek love and success in Paris. When two young men with a travelling carnival come to town, they help the sisters put on a song and dance number that gives them instant success, while simultaneously, a love struck sailor finds his ideal woman in Deneuve. To top it off, even the mother of the two women finds a long lost love.DVD Features:Region 1Keep CaseAnamorphic Widescreen - 2.35:1Audio: Mono - French Subtitles - English - OptionalAdditional Release Material: Trailers

Mirra Bank directs this documentary about the making of A Selection, a 2001 dance performance by the Pilobolus Dance Theater. A collaboration between the Pilobolus artistic directors, Robby Barnett, Michael Tracy, and Jonathan Wolken; and the artistic directors of The Night Kitchen, Arthur Yorinks and famous author-illustrator Maurice Sendak (WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE), sparks the creation of a fantastic story and a dynamic creative process, all of which is captured in Bank's film. Starting from scratch with Sendak's loose suggestion that the story should be about the Holocaust, the artistic directors and dancers go to work. Sendak throws out an idea, the dancers interpret it, the Pilobolus directors modify it. And thus, through trial and error, building and deconstructing, this feisty group of artistic minds and bodies pool their energies into one unique vision. They create a powerful performance, with Sendak's dark cartoonish sets and costumes, a dance that is full of eerie configurations and movements, all to the music of Czech composer Hans Krasa.LAST DANCE is a captivating documentary. The energy and strength--both physical and emotional--of the Pilobolus dancers is infectious. And the collaboration between Sendak's Night Kitchen and the Pilobolus artistic directors is presented as an intense, often conflicted, rigorous process. Archival footage from the Holocaust communicates Sendak's commitment to remembering his lost ancestors. In the end, watching the dancers move through the piece brings climactic closure to the film.DVD Features:Region (unknown)Keep CaseFull Frame - 1.33Additional Release Material: Interview: 1.
