Variety's Owen Gleiberman compares the new version to the original, which he first watched in the summer of 1970, and says it's "one of the most joyful rock documentaries ever made."

Other professors used to take me to snacks when I was single, so I was well aware that hostesses were mostly divorced or single mothers. Mimi sheds light on the nature of snacks by saying that #Japan has a dark side. Regarding the #social#inequality that Greg mentions, Mimi clarifies that there is a double standard whereby men can go to snacks openly, but it is shameful for #women to work in them. Now I'm a family man, but I sympathize with such women, who would otherwise have to #work for close to the minimum wage.

"As I was writing these personal stories and collecting the dispersed memories of my family, reconnecting one generation to the other, I also wanted to reconnect them to the collective memory. This memory is often silenced because the story of the Palestinian #Nakba (catastrophe) is not recognized." - #LinaSoualem

I revisited the #documentary Grizzly Man last night. Still holds up - a beautiful but insane account of a man who made it his life’s mission to protect bears in Alaska from poachers. Did he do more harm than good for these bears? Worth a watch just for the footage alone, although some is a bit unsettling. @movies

"You Can Call Me Bill," the documentary about William Shatner, will be released in movie theaters across the U.S. on March 22 — Shatner's 93rd birthday. When the film premiered at SXSW last year, Deadline spoke to the actor about the origins of the term "mad hatter," space, the mysteries of life, and a song he's written called "Elephants and Termites." "I’m sure you know that termites build these mounds. They masticate the earth, build a tower, and millions of them live in the tower," he said, explaining the origins of the composition. "Along comes an elephant with an itchy butt, and they scratch their butt on the tower, destroy the tower, tower crumbles. It’s now dirt."
