Leonardo da Vinci / Burns, Ken

The film will tell the story of Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci, best known as Leonardo da Vinci, a fifteenth century Italian polymath of soaring imagination and profound intellect, who left behind artistic works of staggering beauty and detailed sketches of futuristic contraptions of warfare and flight that today are marveled at for their technical ingenuity and foresight. From his birth out of wedlock to a notary and peasant woman and apprenticeship to a distinguished Florentian painter, to his days as a military architect, cartographer, sculptor and muralist for hire, the film will offer an intimate portrait of a singular visionary whose Mona Lisa, The Last Supper and The Vitruvian Man are among the most celebrated works known to man, but whose artistic endeavors sometimes seemed an afterthought to his pursuits in science and engineering.

Made in England : the films of Powell & Pressburger / Cohen Media Group
Films of Powell and Pressburger
Martin Scorsese first watched the films of Powell and Pressburger when he was a child, sitting in front of the family TV. When their famous logo came up on screen, Scorsese says, "You knew you were in for fantasy, wonder, magic--real film magic." With Made in England he tells the story of his lifelong love-affair with their movies, including The Life and Death Of Colonel Blimp, Black Narcissus, The Red Shoes and The Tales of Hoffmann. "Certain films you simply run all the time, and you live with them." Scorsese says. "As you grow older, they grow deeper. I'm not sure how it happens, but it does. For me, that body of work is a wondrous presence, a constant source of energy, and a reminder of what life and art are all about." Drawing on a rich array of archive material, Scorsese explores in full the collaboration between the Englishman Powell and the Hungarian Pressburger two romantics and idealists, who thrived in the face of adversity during World War II but were eventually brought low by the film industry of the 1950s. Scorsese celebrates their ability to create "subversive commercial movies" and describes how deeply their films have influenced his own work.

Daytime revolution / Kino Lorber, Inc.

For one extraordinary week in February 1972, the Revolution WAS televised! Daytime Revolution takes us back in time to the week when John Lennon and Yoko Ono took over a Philadelphia broadcasting studio and co-hosted the iconic Mike Douglas Show, at that time a top-rated show reaching a daily audience of 40 million viewers. What followed was five unforgettable episodes of television, with Lennon and Ono at the helm and Mike Douglas bravely keeping the show on track. Acting as producers and hosts, Lennon and Ono handpicked their controversial guests, including Yippie founder Jerry Rubin, Black Panther Chairman Bobby Seale, as well as political activist Ralph Nader and comic truth teller George Carlin. Their version of daytime TV was a radical take on the traditional format, incorporating candid Q&A sessions with their rapt audience, conversations about radical politics, conceptual art events, John's very candid reminiscences about his life with Yoko and The Beatles, and one-of-a-kind musical performances, including a unique duet with Lennon and Chuck Berry and a poignant rendition of Lennon's 'Imagine'. A document of the past that also speaks to our turbulent present, Daytime Revolution captures the power that art can have when it reaches out to communicate and the bravery of two artists who never took the easy way out as they fought for their vision of a better world.
