New York doll
This small, tender documentary looks at life after rock 'n' roll as experienced by Arthur "Killer" Kane, original bassist for the legendary glam-punk band the New York Dolls. After the Dolls 1975 implosion, Mr. Kane labored in miserable obscurity, and wound up as a Mormon working at the church's Family History Center in Los Angeles. Morrissey invites the three surviving Dolls to play the 2004 Meltdown Festival in London, where Mr. Kane, who died of leukemia shortly afterward, drinks in every delicious second of his last hurrah.

Resolved /
Through the stories of two debate teams, the fascinating intricacies of high school debate give way to a portrait of the equally complex racial and class divide in American education in Resolved. As Matt and Sam, gifted debaters from an affluent Texas suburb, rise to the semifinals in their bid to win the national Tournament of Champions, Richard and Louise, talented inner-city debaters from Long Beach, CA, mount a successful challenge to modern debate by refocusing on personal experience and dialogue in their own quest for the championship. This film offers a verité, behind-the-scenes look at the stresses and pressures of this highly competitive pursuit, while serving as a primer on the idiosyncratic techniques that have evolved over the years in high-school policy debate. Inspiring and enlightening, Resolved reveals a constantly shifting sport that is as much philosophy as it is a competition.
