Sarah Silverman Is Visited by Jesus Christ. 'War' by Edwin Starr. NASA | Earthrise: The 45th Anniversary. Old South vs. New South: The 3rd Reconstruction. Documentary: 'Dancing In Jaffa.'
Dancing in Jaffa is set in the city of filmmaker Pierre Dulaine's birth, and documents a 10-week dance program that aimed to teach Jewish and Palestinian Israeli children to dance and compete together. The film demonstrates the powerful role that the arts, and dance in particular, can play in enabling children to overcome prejudice and build strong personal ties with one another. The program is currently used in schools across the United States as well as in Jaffa, Belfast, Canada, Switzerland and Jordan to help spread the message of respect and compassion through dance.

Dave Van Ronk's ex-wife, Terri Thal, reviews the film, Inside Llewyn Davis. Llewyn Davis differs from David. - there are so few similarities. The Coens say the movie isn't about Dave, and they are correct. Most of the acting is very good. Oscar Isaac is excellent -- he's real, and he brings pathos and anger to Llewyn Davis. His performances of David's songs are good. The music? It's done well, but the movie never shows how it comes about.
