[2 hours 1 minute]


Claude Bukowski leaves the family ranch in Oklahoma for New York where he is
rapidly embraced into the hippie group of youngsters led by Berger, yet he's
already been drafted. He soon falls in love with Sheila Franklin, a rich girl
but still a rebel inside.
######
This movie, based on the cult Broadway musical of the 60s, tells a story about
Claude, a young man from Oklahoma who comes to New York City. There he strikes

Rock 'N' Roll High School
ROCK 'N' ROLL HIGH SCHOOL

(Comedy | Music)
[1 hour 33 minutes]


Vince Lombardi High School keeps losing principals to nervous breakdowns
because of the students' love of rock 'n' roll and their disregard of
education. The putative leader of the students is Riff Randell, who
loves the music of the Ramones. A new principal, the rock-music-hating
Miss Evelyn Togar, is brought in and promises to put an end to the
music craze. When Miss Togar and a group of parents attempt to burn a
pile of rock records, the students take over the high school, joined by
the Ramones, who are made honorary students. When the police are
summoned and demand that the students evacuate the building, they do so,
which leads to an explosive finale.

The Rose
THE ROSE

(Drama | Music | Romance)
[2 hours 5 minutes]


Bette Midler plays The Rose, a female rock star strikingly similar to
Janis Joplin. This movie follows Rose's career during her last tour,
as she's determined to return to her Florida hometown. Although a
success, she's exhausted and lonely, but is forced to continue working
by her gruff and greedy manager. Though loud and brassy, Rose is an
insecure alcoholic, and former drug user, who seems to crave approval
in her life. She begins a romance with a limousine driver, who is
actually an A.W.O.L. Sergeant from the US Army. Her musician lifestyle
of "sex, drugs, and rock & roll", along with the constant touring,
leads her to an inevitable breakdown.

ALL THAT JAZZ

(Drama | Music | Musical)
[2 hours 3 minutes]


Choreographing and picking dancers for his current show whilst
editing his feature film about a stand-up comedian is getting to
Joe Gideon. Without the chemical substances, he would not have
the energy to keep up with his girlfriend, his ex-wife, and his
special dancing daughter. They attempt to bring him back from
the brink, but it's too late for his exhausted body and
stress-ravaged heart. He chain-smokes, uses drugs, sleeps with
his dancers and overworks himself into open-heart surgery. Scenes
from his past life start to encroach on the present and he becomes
increasingly aware of his mortality.

Roller Boogie
ROLLER BOOGIE

(Comedy | Drama | Music)
[1 hour 43 minutes]


Beverly Hills teenager Terry Barkley has a talent for the flute, a
scholarship to Julliard and her whole future planned out - until she
falls head over heals for Bobby James, a maniac on skates with all
the right moves and his sights set on becoming an Olympic Roller
Skater. But Terry may lose more than her bearings when Jammer's,
the local roller rink is threatened by a shady development deal - and
a ruthless mobster threatens to turn the roller rink into a disco
inferno. Will Terry give up her dreams of playing classical flute at
Julliard to team up with Bobby and enter the Jammer's roller disco
contest? Will Bobby see his Olympic dreams come true? Will the
ruthless mobster really buy Jammer's? Where's the parental
supervision? For the answers to these and other burning questions,
watch this cult movie.
