“A good ski run is like a good meal.” So begins the unmistakable musings – and voice – of Warren Miller as we journey back to the “Me Decade” and his classic film, “Ski a la Carte.” All the sights, sounds and styles of the 1970s are guaranteed to get you in the mood for a little ski boogie on an off the hill at some of the most amazing destinations on the planet. Classic ski action cinematography at its best. Featured locations include Mammoth Mountain, CA, and an invitation-only spring racing derby; Mt Vernasus in Greece, which hosts a school for ski-ophytes; and some truly outrageous ’70s freestyle action from Squaw Valley, Park City, Sun Valley, and Colorado’s Breckenridge, Keystone, Copper and A-Basin resorts. Generous portions of Warren Miller’s trademark humor and some crazy kaleidoscopic effects make “Ski a la Carte” the perfect sample of vintage 1970s Warren Miller.

“My new feature length documentary Breadcrumb Trail is about Slint and the Louisville music culture they emerged from. It includes footage going back to the early 1990s that I shot when repeatedly driving up from Athens, GA to Louisville to try to chase rumors of what they guys were up to. Over the years I tracked down more stories about them, then began filming interviews with each of the band members and their contemporaries. We also unearthed some unseen/uncirculated footage from their few live performances as well as the writing and arranging of Spiderland.”

This documentary film explores the world of the bow and the extraordinary masters who make them. The bow is the Cinderella of the orchestra—the overworked and overshadowed ally to its more glamorous partners. Few people, even among lovers of classical music, think of the bow as an instrument in its own right, but players of stringed instruments see them differently. To musicians, the bow is as essential to expressing the soul of the music as the violin or cello. The film follows the journey of the “silent servant” of the music world—from the workshops of the virtuosos of the trade, to the birthplace of the bow in France, and to Brazil, home to the imperiled tree from which the world’s finest bows are made.
