The Booksellers
himself
What once seemed like an esoteric world now seems essential to our culture: the community of rare book dealers and collectors who, in their love of the delicacy and tactility of books, are helping to keep the printed word alive. D.W. Young’s elegant and entertaining documentary, executive produced by Parker Posey, is a lively tour of New York’s book world, past and present, from the Park Avenue Armory’s annual Antiquarian Book Fair, where original editions can fetch hundreds of thousands of dollars; to the Strand and Argosy book stores, still standing against all odds; to the beautifully crammed apartments of collectors and buyers. The film features a litany of special guests, including Fran Lebowitz, Susan Orlean, Gay Talese, and a community of dedicated book dealers who strongly believe in the wonder of the object and the everlasting importance of what’s inside.
Andrew Dice Clay: No Apologies
Director
The Dice-Man, live at Long Island's Westbury Music Fair, poses such questions as "Why am I a bad guy for talking dirty, when other celebrities like Madonna and Woody Allen are doing much worse?" The infamously potty-mouthed comic is at his raunchy, bitingly funny best, exploring topics like masculinity and world politics. And of course, no Andrew Dice Clay performance would be complete without his signature naughty nursery rhymes.
Jeff Foxworthy: You Might Be a Redneck if...
Director
Jeff Foxworthy's observations have made him one of America's favorite comedians. He's the bestselling comedy recording artist in history, a multiple Grammy Award nominee, a bestselling author and a popular TV, radio, and film performer. Now you can see this outrageously funny comedian talking about life, dating, marriage, and family in the classic You Might be a Redneck If. (filmed in 1991)

The Last Sea
Director
This film deals with the illegal Jewish immigrants - Holocaust survivors - who, between 1945 and 1948, overcame incredible hardships to get to Israel and, by their numbers and presence, helped to make inevitable the birth of the Jewish state.
The 81st Blow
Director
The film covers the oppression of Jews under the Nazis and features rare historical footage of concentration camps. The title is derived from a comment by a witness at Adolf Eichmann's trial. According to his testimony, he was whipped 80 times by the Nazis, but was not believed by Israelis after the war; this final doubt of his own people was the "81st blow". The 81st Blow is the first film in the Israeli Holocaust Trilogy by Bergman, Ehrlich and Gouri. It was followed by The Last Sea (1980) and Flames in the Ashes (1985).
Tommy Davidson: Takin' It To D.C.
