It was a moment (1965 to 1967) when bands came to LA to emulate The Beatles and Laurel Canyon emerged as a hotbed of creativity and collaboration for a new generation of musicians who would soon put an indelible stamp on the history of American popular music. Featuring Jakob Dylan\, the film explores the beginnings of the Laurel Canyon music scene. Dylan uncovers never-before-heard personal details behind the bands and their songs and how that music continues to inspire today. Echo in the Canyon contains candid conversations and performances with Brian Wilson\, Ringo Starr\, Michelle Phillips\, Eric Clapton\, Stephen Stills\, David Crosby\, Graham Nash\, Roger McGuinn and Jackson Browne as well as contemporary musicians they influenced such as Tom Petty (in his very last film interview)\, Beck\, Fiona Apple\, Cat Power\, Regina Spektor and Norah Jones. \n  \n  \nAwards: \nNominated\, Music Movies Competition\, Cleveland International Film Festival\, 2019 \n  \n[embed_video video_site=”vimeo” video_url=”https://vimeo.com/334991177″ video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n[col_one] \n[col_two_thirds ] \n\nProgram is Sponsored by: \n \n\nFilm tickets: $10 for Adults\, $8 for Seniors/Students \nAdvance tickets are available online and at the Uptown Theatre box office one week before screening (in the evenings an hour before their first screening).

(USA) \n[/col_two_thirds] \n[col_one ] \n  \n“The gentle humour and simple humanity of Estevez’s script helps the audience digest the messages within “The Public\,” to engender sympathy for our nation’s homeless and sing the praises of libraries.” – Sean P. Means\, Salt Lake Tribune \n“It’s smart work and edifying\, with Estevez finding an original topic to explore with compassion and engrossing drama.” – Brian Orndorf\, Blu-ray.com \n“Estevez does an elegant job with this setup\, creating a low-key\, uncondescending portrait of lives on the edge.” – Ben Kenigsberg\, New York Times \n  \n\nIn “The Public” an unusually bitter Arctic blast has made its way to downtown Cincinnati and the front doors of the public library where the action of the film takes place. At odds with library officials over how to handle the extreme weather event\, some homeless patrons turn the building into a shelter for the night by staging an “Occupy” sit in. What begins as an act of civil disobedience becomes a standoff with police and a rush-to-judgment media constantly speculating about what’s really happening. This David versus Goliath story tackles some of our nation’s most challenging issues\, homelessness and mental illness and sets the drama inside one of the last bastions of democracy-in-action: your public library. \n  \nAwards: 4 wins\, 1 nomination\nNominated\, Local Heroes Competition\, Cleveland International Film Festival\, 2019 \n\n  \n[embed_video video_site=”youtube” video_url=”https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaafvRKrq6w” video_width=”640″ video_height=”360″ ] \n\n\n  \n\n \n  \n[/col_one]
