Repeat PerformanceRepeat Performance
Restored Blu-ray/DVD Edition

Think of it as film noir’s answer to It’s a Wonderful Life or a full-length precursor to The Twilight Zone.

 

Repeat Performance, the most requested film in the early years of the Film Noir Foundation’s restoration campaign, is finally available in digital form! An amazingly original hybrid of film noir, supernatural fantasy, and backstage melodrama, the film stars Joan Leslie as a Broadway actress who magically relives the previous year of her life, but can she alter the fateful mistakes and misjudgments that led to a New Year’s Eve tragedy?

– Filmmmaker The Magazine of Independent Film.

 

 

James Dean walks down Broadway, his shoulders hunched against the drizzle. The greatest legends of jazz, from Louis Armstrong to the cool Miles Davis, are caught in some of their most passionate or private moments. All of these images came from the eye, mind and camera of Dennis Stock (1928-2010), one of the most influential chroniclers of the late 20th century.

Bobbie Lovesong - On the WindBobbie Lovesong
Paris by Starlight

Self Released


 

"The album is Paris By Starlight by Bobbie Lovesong and this one positively floats. Yes, this is one of those dreams where you can fly and Lovesong has created a lighter-than-air soundscape. With analog synths, vibey grooves and subliminal voices popping up throughout, Paris By Starlight is an energy all of its own. It’s something special.” -Aaron Stein, Jambase
