American Teen skates some thin ice with its documentary ethics but, in the end, presents a charming and stylish (if packaged) tale.

American Teen is the touching and hilarious Sundance hit that follows the lives of four teenagers – a jock, the popular girl, the artsy girl and the geek in one small town in Indiana through their senior year of high school.

We see the insecurities, the cliques, the jealousies, the first loves and heartbreaks, and the struggle to make profound decisions about the future.

Filming daily for ten months, filmmaker Nanette Burstein (On the Ropes, The Kid Stays in the Picture) developed a deep understanding of her subjects. The result is a film that goes beyond the enduring stereotypes of high school to render complex young people trying to find their way into adulthood.

LOU REED’S BERLIN

In Theatres: July 18th, 2008

Thirty three-years after his ambitious concept album {^Berlin} was pronounced dead on arrival, Lou Reed reteams with producers Bob Ezrin and Hal Willner to stage live performances of the now-classic release at concert venues all across the globe. The album, which was savaged by critics upon release, was scored with orchestral arrangements and follows several characters as they experience jealousy, rage, and loss. While many turned their backs on the release back in 1973, the tide eventually turned and {^Berlin} was even named by Rolling Stone as one of the top 500 albums ever released. Filmed during a five-night stint at St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn, N.Y., this belated, live rendition of {^Berlin} features an impressionistic backdrop filmed by director Julian Schnabel’s daughter Lola and haunting backup vocals courtesy of the Brooklyn Youth Chorus. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

THE DOORMAN EXCLUSIVE CLIP #1

Opening July 18 in New York City at City Cinemas Village East

A film crew has set out to make an insiders’ guide to the legendary New York City club scene with its most famous gatekeeper, Trevor W., “starring” as their host.

Trevor has the power. He knows people. But more importantly (as Trevor points out), he knows people who know him. After mysteriously losing his job, Trevor fails to inform the film crew following him. He struggles to keep up appearances in front of the camera while his glamorous, jet-set “celebrity” lifestyle goes into an abrupt and awkward tailspin.

Trevor W. may have held power over many important people, but what’s a Doorman without a door?

Skewering the velvet rope circuit, this fictional documentary starring Lucas Akoskin features dozens of cameos by real-life boldface names including Peter Bogdanovich, Thom Filicia, and Amy Sacco.

THE DOORMAN opens at City Cinemas Village East on July 18, 2008 in New York City.

The film is unrated with a running time of 76 minutes.
