Synopsis
McCartney: The Hunt for the Lost Bass
For over fifty years, the disappearance of Paul McCartney’s original Höfner bass has been one of rock ‘n’ roll’s enduring mysteries. The Hunt for the Lost Bass tells the extraordinary story of this iconic instrument, and the fan powered quest to find it.
We Were Famous, You Don't Remember: The Embarrassment
Formed in 1979 in Wichita, Kansas, the so-called "blister pop" band the Embarrassment played major U.S. cities and garnered praise from the likes of Allen Ginsberg, John Cale and Jonathan Demme, but their refusal to compromise their vision made success elusive. Through archival interviews and concert footage, this documentary draws a portrait of the oft-overlooked post-punk legends.
