  It’s October 1977, and the Rolling Stones are in a Paris recording studio. They’re under siege. Keith Richards’s legal troubles after his arrest for heroin possession threaten the band’s future, and the broad consensus among rock aficionados is that the band will never again reach the heights of Exile on Main Street.But Mick Jagger is writing lyrics inspired by the year he has just spent in New York City, where he was hanging out with the punks at CBGB and with the glitterati at Studio 54. And new bandmember Ron Wood is helping Richards recapture the two-guitar groove that the band had been missing since the Brian Jones era. The result? Some Girls, the band’s response both to punk rock and to disco, an album that crackles with all the energy, decadence, and violence of New York in the 1970s. Weaving together the history of the band and the city, Cyrus R. K. Patell traces the genesis and legacy of the album that Jagger would later call the band’s best since Let It Bleed.

  ABOUT THE FILM 
  Forrest Gump is a heartwarming drama about a kind-hearted man from Alabama with a low IQ who inadvertently influences several major historical events in the 20th century. The film follows Forrest’s extraordinary life, from his childhood with a loving mother to his experiences as a college football star, soldier in Vietnam, ping-pong champion, and shrimp boat captain. The film explores themes of destiny, love, perseverance, and the unpredictability of life, while highlighting the impact of historical events. Told from Forrest’s unique perspective, it combines humor, drama, and emotional depth, reflecting the power of human resilience and simplicity. 
    
  TRIVIA SAMPLES: 
    
  “Tom Hanks was not paid for this film. Instead, he took percentage points, which ultimately netted him around $40 million.” 
    
  “The line, "My name is Forrest Gump. People call me Forrest Gump," was ad-libbed by Tom Hanks during filming. Director Robert Zemeckis liked it so much that he decided to keep it in.” 
    
  “With every transition of Forrest's age, one thing remains the same: in the first scene of each transition, he wears a blue plaid shirt.” 
    
  “Tom Hanks' younger brother, Jim Hanks, doubled for him during many of his numerous running sequences.” 
    
  “The necklace worn by Lieutenant Dan is a rosary with a Saint Christopher medal, inscribed "Protect Us In Combat." It was worn in Vietnam by Gary Sinise's brother-in-law, Jack Treese, in 1967-68.”

  Landis - The Story of a Real Man...

  Preston Fassel

  At the dawn of the 1980s, there was one serious name in horror and exploitation film criticism: Bill Landis. While other magazines were concerned with behind-the-scenes information, tributes, and SFX tutorials, Landis' Sleazoid Express was one part film journal and one part anthropological study, seriously critiquing the grindhouse movies that played the theaters of 42nd Street while also documenting the dying subculture that had grown up around them. 
  Profiled in Rolling Stone for his pioneering work, Landis' over-the-top "Mr. Sleazoid" persona and double-life as an adult film star masked the pain behind a child genius whose intellect alienated him from his peers; a consummate outcast who only felt at home among other outcasts. 
  After settling into life as a husband, father, and author in the 90s, it seemed that Landis had turned a corner-but the ghosts of Times Square were never far behind him. Dead at the age of 49 on the eve of what should have been a successful comeback, his legacy has nominally been forgotten. Award-winning author and journalist Preston Fassel pieces together the full story of his life for the first time, from his turbulent childhood, to his meteoric rise in the New York vice scene, to his tragic demise on the streets of Chicago. 
  Featuring exclusive interviews with Kurt Loder (MTV; Rolling Stone), Michael J. Weldon (Psychotronic Video), Art Ettinger (Ultra Violent Magazine), Carl Abrahamsson, Mike McPadden (Heavy Metal Movies; Teen Movie Hell), and others, plus excerpts from Landis' unpublished autobiographical novella Last Exit in Manattan and a reprint of Landis' seminal Fangoria interview with Andy Milligan, Landis at last pulls back the curtain on one of genre writing's most influential-yet unknown-figures. In that lost, damned, golden age called the 80s, there was a movie star named Bobby Spector, and a writer named Mr. Sleazoid. Most importantly, there was a man named Bill Landis. This is his story.

  The Beatles, an English rock band formed in Liverpool in 1960, became the most commercially successful and critically acclaimed act in the history of popular music. The songs of Paul McCartney, John Lennon, George Harrison, and Ringo Starr scanned several genres, from pop ballads to psychedelic rock, often incorporating classical and other elements in innovative ways. As their songwriting grew in sophistication during the decade, they came to be viewed as integral to the development of the 1960s counterculture and popular music's recognition as an art form. This fascinating audio program includes actual radio commercials from the 1960s for the band.
