Documentaries

"Capitalism A Love Story", Michael Moore Français Michael Moore, né le 23 avril 1954 à Flint, Michigan (États-Unis), est un écrivain et un réalisateur américain de documentaires engagés.
Le film traite de la crise financière de 2007 à 2009 et sa relance, tout en portant un acte d'accusation contre l'ordre économique actuel aux États-Unis et le capitalisme en général. Le film aborde beaucoup de thèmes, comme la « mentalité de casino » de Wall Street, l'influence de Goldman Sachs à Washington, le niveau de pauvreté de nombreux pilotes de ligne, la grande vague de saisies immobilières, et les conséquences de la « cupidité effrénée ». Le film comporte aussi une composante religieuse, où Moore examine si oui ou non le capitalisme est un péché et se pose la question de savoir si Jésus serait un capitaliste.(Les Etats-Unis sont un pays majoritairement protestant dont une des vertus principales sont le travail et où gagner de l'argent par le travail n'est pas "mal vu").

1959 The Year that Changed Jazz 1959 was the seismic year jazz broke away from complex bebop music to new forms, allowing soloists unprecedented freedom to explore and express. It was also a pivotal year for America: the nation was finding its groove, enjoying undreamt-of freedom and wealth social, racial and upheavals were just around the corner and jazz was ahead of the curve.

Four major jazz albums were made, each a high watermark for the artists and a powerful reflection of the times. Each opened up dramatic new possibilities for jazz which continue to be felt Miles Davis Kind of Blue Dave Brubeck, Time Out Charles Mingus, Mingus Ah Um; and Ornette Coleman, The Shape of Jazz to Come.

Rarely seen archive performances help vibrantly bring the era to life and explore what made these albums vital both in 1959 and the 50 years since. The programme contains interviews with Lou Reed, Dave Brubeck, Ornette Coleman, Charlie Haden, Herbie Hancock, Joe Morello (Brubecks drummer) and Jimmy Cobb (the only surviving member of Miles band) along with a host of jazz movers and shakers from the 50s and beyond.

"Kind Of Blue" - Miles Davis - Documentary 1/3 Kind of Blue is a studio album by American jazz musician Miles Davis, released on August 17, 1959, by Columbia Records. Recording sessions for the album took place at Columbia's 30th Street Studio in New York City on March 2 and April 22, 1959. The sessions featured Davis's ensemble sextet, with pianist Bill Evans, drummer Jimmy Cobb, bassist Paul Chambers, and saxophonists John Coltrane and Julian "Cannonball" Adderley. After the entry of Evans into his sextet, Davis followed up on the modal experimentations of Milestones (1958) by basing Kind of Blue entirely on modality, in contrast to his earlier work with the hard bop style of jazz.

Though precise figures have been disputed, Kind of Blue has been described by many music writers not only as Davis's best-selling album, but as the best-selling jazz record of all time. On October 7, 2008, it was certified quadruple platinum in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). It has been regarded by many critics as the greatest jazz album of all time and Davis's masterpiece.

The album's influence on music, including jazz, rock, and classical music, has led music writers to acknowledge it as one of the most influential albums ever made. In 2002, it was one of fifty recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry. In 2003, the album was ranked number 12 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time.
