In the Heights: Chasing Broadway Dreams
Executive Producer
Making it in New York City is tough. Few get the chance to live out their dreams, and the cast and crew of In the Heights know this all too well. This young, diverse group of relatively unknown artists and performers dreamed of making it on Broadway, but are well aware that a new original musical set outside a bodega in the Latino neighborhood of Washington Heights is a highly risky proposition. It took eight years in all, but they succeeded beyond their wildest expectations, winning four Tony Awards along the way, including Best Musical and Best Score for a Musical. This documentary chronicles the personal stories of composer/lyricist Lin-Manuel Miranda and the cast of In the Heights in the months leading up to its 2008 opening night.
Metallica: Some Kind of Monster
Executive Producer
O documentário se inicia em 2001, quando o Metallica vai para um estúdio em San Francisco gravar seu novo álbum. No início das filmagens o baixista Jason Newsted deixa a banda, após 14 anos. Como a dinâmica entre os demais membros não é das melhores, o empresário contrata um terapeuta para ajudá-los. Apesar do auxílio profissional, o vocalista James Hetfield continua se desentendendo com o baterista Lars Ulrich, com Hetfield se internando numa clínica para tratamento de alcoolismo. Ele volta um ano depois, e só então o Metallica consegue finalizar o novo álbum.
