Steve Earle: The DVD Collection

event2005 top_panel_open

This installment in the 20th Century Masters series contains a selection of music videos from the fiercely independent country singer and songwriter Steve Earle. Fusing country with rock paid rich dividends for Steve Earle as he built a solid career on the back of an amalgamation of his two favorite genres. In the 1980s country was deeply unfashionable, so it took some guts for Earle to dust it down and provide listeners with a modern update of a sound that was considered to be way past its sell-by date. Here, five of his music videos are collected together. Among them are "Someday," "Guitar Town," "Copperhead Road," and two others.

Last Party 2000

Act like Self

event2001 star_border 6.1 top_panel_open

Filmed over the last six months of the 2000 Presidential election, Phillip Seymour Hoffman starts documenting the campaign at the Republican and Democratic National Conventions, but spends more time outside, in the street protests and police actions than in the orchestrated conventions. Hoffman shows an obvious distaste for money politics and the conservative right. He looks seedier and more disillusioned the campaign progresses. Eventually Hoffman seems most energized by the Ralph Nader campaign as an alternative to the nearly indistinguishable major parties. The high point of the film are the comments by Barney Frank who says that marches and demonstrations are largely a waste of time, and that the really effective political players such as the NRA and the AARP never bother with walk ins, sit-ins, shoot-ins or shuffles. In the interview with Jesse Jackson, Hoffman is too flustered to ask all of his questions.
