Although the Nazis seized and killed millions of Jews during World War II, they failed to capture an estimated 25,000 who escaped into the forests of Eastern Europe. Instead of simply hiding, these young men and women - many of them teenagers -- banded together to fight back, carrying out deadly acts of sabotage, staging ambushes, and waging clandestine warfare against the Nazis and their collaborators. The Jewish Partisans tells the inspiring story of how these innocent young adults transformed into guerrilla soldiers, surviving - and ultimately triumphing - against extraordinary odds.

In 1965, Janis Ian, a 14-year-old singer-songwriter from New Jersey, wrote “Society’s Child” about an interracial relationship. Recorded and released a year later, the song launched Ian’s career, but its subject matter ignited controversy, even resulting in death threats. The fallout plunged Ian into an emotional tailspin–and yet a few years later she emerged from the ashes with an even bigger hit, “At Seventeen.” Over six decades, Janis Ian gained ten Grammy nominations in eight different categories, saw her song “Stars” recorded by such luminaries as Nina Simone and Cher, and overcame homophobia, misogyny, and a life-threatening illness to produce an indelible body of work that continues to draw audiences around the globe. Featuring Janis Ian, Joan Baez, Jean Smart, Arlo Guthrie, Lily Tomlin, and Tom Paxton, among other icons.

J. Edgar Hoover hated Martin Luther King. He was convinced the civil rights movement was infiltrated by communists. He also disapproved of King's private life, calling him "a tom-cat with obsessive degenerate sexual urges." Perhaps most of all, he feared King as a radical, a subversive bent on challenging the cherished system of segregation and the status quo. To ruin King he used every means at his disposal. William Sullivan, Hoover's right-hand man and head of the notorious COINTELPRO division of the FBI, once said in their pursuit of King, "no holds were barred." Bugs were planted in King's hotel rooms, his phones tapped, informants paid. The Bureau enlisted journalists to write hostile stories about King, never alerted him to threats on his life, and when King received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964, the FBI threatened to blackmail him unless he committed suicide. Utilizing a trove of documents obtained through the Freedom of Information Act and unsealed by the National Archives, MLK/FBI tells this astonishing and tragic story for the first time. The film contrasts Hoover and King, two powerful, iconic figures who, despite all of their differences, saw themselves in the same way, as a protector of liberty--a guardian of the American dream. Yet their view of that dream could not have been more opposed, and to examine their strange and tortured relationship is to ask questions as central to our time as it was to theirs. What is "free," what is "American"? What do we mean when we use those words, and who controls the definitions?

Lyricism and grit are deftly balanced in director Nicholas Ray’s noir classic On Dangerous Ground (1951). Robert Ryan plays a violent city cop, on the edge of breakdown, who finds a chance for redemption as he investigates a murder in a small town. There, he meets a blind woman (Ida Lupino) who may hold the key to the missing killer. Herrmann’s climactic music, "The Death Hunt," was his single favorite piece among his film scores.
