A film by Barbara Miller, Philip Delaquis, Manuel Bauer, in collaboration with Richard Gere and Oren Moverman.
A deeply intimate and unique documentary in which the 89-year-old Dalai Lama speaks directly to the camera, giving the audience the feeling of a private audience.
In addition, the film shows previously unpublished material from the archives of the Tibetan government and in this way tells us the story of the 14th Dalai Lama.

Four-part “Willie Nelson & Family” Documentary to Premiere Dec. 21 on Paramount+
- “He knows something nobody else knows,” Bobby Bare says in trailer
Love and music were the two gifts Mama and Daddy Nelson gave to their grandchildren, Bobbie and Willie Nelson.
And those gifts, “saved our lives,” Nelson says in the trailer for “Willie Nelson & Family.”
Directed by Thom Zimny and Oren Moverman, the four-part documentary tracks Nelson’s rise from Nashville, his tax problems that led to the IRS seizing nearly all he’d amassed and his re-establishment and current status as beloved elder statesman.
“He knows something nobody else knows,” Bobby Bare says. “It’s that magic that he carries around in his pocket.”
Constructed with archival photos and videos and featuring commentary from Dolly Parton, Kenny Chesney, Don Was, Bill Anderson, Shelby Lynne, Emmylou Harris, Waylon Jennings, Sheryl Crow, Rosanne Cash, Ray Charles and others, the series premieres Dec. 21 on Paramount+.
In the trailer, Nelson says it best:
“Good music never goes out of fashion,” he says. “Like the sun, it rises every morning. Like the moon, it lights up the night. Like the seasons, it keeps changing.”

251 - Love and Mercy (with Taylor Cole!)
Are you loving our new original intro music, listeners? We're joined this week by its composer and our friend Taylor Cole to muse on the genre musical biopic with 2015's Love and Mercy. The film follows different chapters of Brian Wilson's life and mental wellness journey, with Paul Dano taking on Wilson's life as he experimented with The Beach Boys' sound and John Cusack as the later Wilson. After a debut at the 2014 TIFF, the film launched in the summer to positive reviews and a slew of precursor nominations for Dano. But much like the Academy voted with The Fablemans this past year, Dano was left out at the last moment.
This episode, we discuss how the film's structure appropriately tells Wilson's story while creatively twisting the standard biopic framework. We also discuss Elizabeth Banks' performance headlining the later portions of the film, divisive feelings about Dano's earlier performances, and 2015 Best Supporting Actor.
Topics also include Cusack strike tweeting, presenting Chicago to Social Studies class, and our relationships with the music of The Beach Boys.

Todd Haynes on Arthur Stuart
OM: I think you would agree that the character who most personalizes the film and makes it so emotional is Arthur. He's not just the guy who walks around asking what Rosebud is.
TH: Arthur is me. He's you. He's the fan who becomes part of the story, the silhouette who has the light turned onto him. I still have a crush on him, the character, and it's largely due to Christian [Bale's] performance - there's just something so heartbreaking about it. I still can't be completely objective about Arthur. It is a very difficult part to play, and much less inviting than the more colorful roles in the film. But the weight on that character/actor to carry the film and ground you emotionally, and give you a consistent point of entry into the story - through all of these flashbacks and dizzying whirlwind of memories - was enormous. I think Christian rose to the occasion and presented us with a consistent point of ourselves as the public who buys the music. The film had to have a really strong fan point of view, not just as a framework for letting Mandy and the rest tell the story. He is there for us as a reminder of our place in the cycle of pop and consumer culture, that we're really central to it. Something about that cycle - where the kiss between Brian and Curt is photographed, the photograph gets printed, it goes through the press, it gets sold at the newsstand, some little kid in Manchester buys it, he takes it home, he opens it up, and it gives him an erection - is very real. There's something palpable about intercutting the public sexuality of the rock stars with the very private, unknown sexuality of the consumer, and how one directly affects the other. I think it all has to do with the tremendous joy that rock performers get from performing their music, the sexual connection to the audience, which film-makers cannot experience. To have lived a live moment with an audience, where some kind of charge is being let out on one end and taken in on the other, is pretty amazing. It's also why rock speaks to adolescents. They are most in need and most open to all kinds of charges like that, because it's not yet codified, or genderized or labelled.

Willie Nelson Docuseries in the Works
“Willie Nelson and Family” is not just a band. It’ll soon be a docuseries that promises to present a “narrative never seen in its entirety.”
Blackbird Presents is making the film in partnership with Sight Unseen and says “production is underway” on the “definitive docuseries chronicling the extraordinary life and career of the iconic Willie Nelson.”
Nelson has opened his archives to the filmmakers. The musician, his family and friends are also participating in shooting, taking place in Austin, Maui, Nashville, Los Angeles and New York, the producers said.
“Words like ‘honored,’ ‘excited’ and ‘humbled’ don’t come close to describing the way we feel about being entrusted with telling Willie’s story,” co-directors Thom Zimny and Oren Moverman said in a statement.
“And what a story it is. We are celebrating the music, the career, the long road, the family, friends and history. But, more than anything, we are piecing together a narrative - one never before seen in its entirety - about an extraordinary man with a unique ability to bring people together.”
A release date for “Willie Nelson and Family” has not been announced.
