剧情简介

THE BLACK POWER MIXTAPE 1967-1975 mobilizes a treasure trove of 16mm material shot by Swedish journalists who came to the US drawn by stories of urban unrest and revolution. Gaining access to many of the leaders of the Black Power Movement—Stokely Carmichael, Bobby Seale, Angela Davis and Eldridge Cleaver among them—the filmmakers captured them in intimate moments and remarkably unguarded interviews. Thirty years later, this lush collection was found languishing in the basement of Swedish Television. Director Gran Olsson and co-producer Danny Glover bring this footage to light in a mosaic of images, music and narration chronicling the evolution one of our nation’s most indelible turning points, the Black Power movement. Music by Questlove and Om’Mas Keith, and commentary from prominent African- American artists and activists who were influenced by the struggle – including Erykah Badu, Harry Belafonte, Talib Kweli, and Melvin Van Peebles – give the historical footage a fresh, contemporary resonance and makes the film an exhilarating, unprecedented account of an American revolution.

He left home at the age of 19 to fight courageously for the independence of the United States, and went back in 1781 to fight in vain for democratic reform in France. But when he revisited the US for the fiftieth anniversary of our revolution, he was welcomed as an American hero. An Oren Jacoby film.

影片内容介绍

剧情简介

She has been portrayed on film by some of the most famous actresses of their times, from Norma Shearer to Kirsten Dunst, and her name is now synonymous with privilege and excess. But who was the real Marie Antoinette? This film goes beyond the infamous, yet apocryphal quote, ‘Let them eat cake’, that has been used for centuries to damn the seemingly frivolous queen of France. Instead viewers are introduced to a tender-hearted, complex woman, whose life began in splendour, yet ended under the guillotine’s blade. History has often blamed Marie Antoinette for the French Revolution and subsequent Reign of Terror. Her story is, undoubtedly, tied up with one of extravagance, inequality and bloody revolution, but could the wife of Louis XVI in fact have been a scapegoat? This film, featuring input from luminaries such as Simon Schama, traces her journey from her childhood in Austria, to her troubled marriage and life in the extraordinary Palace of Versailles, and ultimately, to her final hours in a squalid prison cell. Could the time have come for a reassessment of one of history’s most famous women?

The story of Fort Niagara is the story of a struggle for a continent. For over 150 years, four nations struggled to control this strategic point at the mouth of the Niagara River, and thus control the critical water artery it protected.

Visitors to the site today can still explore one of North America’s largest collections of original 18th century military architecture – tangible reminders of the fort’s important past. Rare archival footage, expert commentaries and spectacular videography of the fort itself come together in brilliant High-Definition to create a program that is a must for anyone interested in the story of North America. FORT NIAGARA: THE STRUGGLE FOR A CONTINENT explores the story of the long-standing landmark in Youngstown, New York. This WNED production was developed in cooperation with the Old Fort Niagara Association.

剧情简介

Ninety years ago in Egypt’s Valley of the Kings, Howard Carter made the most sensational discovery in the history of archaeology–the tomb of Tutankhamun and its golden treasures. It made Tutankhamen the most famous name in ancient Egyptian history. But the real story has become shrouded in myth, and exact circumstances of Tutankhamun’s life and death remain a unknown. The two hour Secrets of the Dead special brings together the latest evidence from a team of archaeologists, anatomists, geologists, and Egyptologists to build the ultimate picture of Tutankhamen. They investigate what was unusual about his burial–why it seems he was buried in a hurry, and what analysis of his mummy and the artifacts in the tomb can tell us about his life and death. Ultimate Tut offers a 21st century approach to ancient history, blending 3D graphics, stylized reconstruction, and a rollicking forensic investigation. Based on genuinely new scientific research, the film will present fresh insights into how Tutankhamen was buried, why his tomb was the only one to remain intact, and the enduring mystery around how he died.
