Paris 36 - Faubourg 36 HD480p 47MB HD720p 117MBPeriod movie that takes place in a working-class district in the north of Paris in 1936. It's about the Chansonia, a music hall that has been closed down and whose former workers are now trying to reopen it. It's a bit like the French version of Mrs Henderson Presents. Directed by Christophe Barratier (Les Choristes).
The movie doesn't really use its historical background and is mainly entertaining and somewhat sappy. But it has a wonderful production design and costumes, and if you like French chansons then have a look. It's also fun to spot Pierre Richard.
Harvard Beats Yale 29-29 HD480p 28MB HD720p 102MBThis documentary with the great title has already been in (very) limited release for a while now in the US but only now a hi-def trailer has surfaced on the Apple site. It tells the story of the dramatic college football game between Harvard and Yale in 1968, when the Vietnam war has been raging and Martin Luther King and Robert Kennedy have been assassinated. Besides the sports drama and the political background there are also a few popular names involved. A member of the Harvard team is Al Gore's former roommate Tommy Lee Jones, a Yale player at one point dated Meryl Streep and another player has been immortalised as part of the Doonesbury comic strip.
I pretty much don't care about American football but an entertaining sports drama is usually independent from the underlying sport itself so I wouldn't mind watching it one day on TV. It also seems to be my kind of doc with lots of people telling a story without fancy re-enactments.
