This was the album that almost never made it! This is the definitive story of the making of Fleetwood Macs Rumours, an album that has truly earned its place in the pantheon of rock music history. Including a specially recorded version of Christine McVie's haunting 'Songbird', and Lindsey Buckingham playing a wonderful new acoustic version of 'Never Going Back', you can see why Rumours is a truly Classic Album. - Director:

Mark Felt (2017)The Silent Man / Mark Felt: The Man Who Brought Down the White House
Based on a true story of the most famous anonymous man in American history, Liam Neeson stars as Mark Felt, the FBI second-in-command who was the 'Deep Throat' whistle-blower in the 1970's Watergate scandal. Few have known about the personal and professional life of the brilliant and uncompromising Felt, who risked and ultimately sacrificed everything, including his family, career, and ultimately his freedom, to bring what he knew to light. As current events strike startling parallels to the political turmoil of the Watergate era - including power struggles between the executive branch and the FBI', evidence of election dirty tricks, and renewed White House challenges to the veracity of the media - Mark Felt's story could not be more timely. - Director:
