In this documentary politico/filmmaker Oliver Stone chose 95 minutes from 30 hours of footage that he filmed while spending time with Castro. The film opens with a placard stating that any time during the shooting Castro was able to say find out more...

Based on Peter Biskind's revelationary book, Easy Riders Raging Bulls is a gobsmacking and addictive insight into the cocaine fuelled genius of Hollywood's movers, shakers and makers during a period of cinema noted not just for its success but it's willingness to take risks and embrace originality. Though considering the hedonistic behaviour of most involved, it's a miracle they even knew who they were. find out more...

A reverential tribute to the wacko and anarchic master-blaster of Gonzo Journalism; from his early days as investigative reporter and writer of 'Hell's Angels', his drug-fueled 'Fear and Loathing' episodes, the '68 Chicago convention, his bid to become sheriff of Aspen, Colorado, his coverage of the 1972 George McGovern campaign and onto his eventual decline as a writer.

A long time a-comin... This much anticipated ode to Dylan received much hype before its release and precipitated a resurgence in the Great Man's popularity. The film focuses pretty much exclusively on Dylans career from his folky Hibbing beginnings to his controversial UK tour in 1966, where he was deemed to have shunned his faithful followers by playing an audacious vivacious electric rhythm 'n' blues set. There are numerous nuggets of gold littering the documentary, some coming from Bob, some find out more...

An investigative documentary by Shane O'Sullivan that examines the events of that fateful night in 1968 and presents compelling theories that suggest the killer, Sirhan Sirhan, was not working alone.
