TONY PALMER - DVD ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE VOL. 10

Popis - ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE VOL. 10:
Over the past forty plus years British film director Tony Palmer has established himself as one of the country's foremost director's of documentary and factual based films. One of Tony Palmers first successes was the film All My Loving which was released in 1968. Some seven years later Tony had the idea, encouraged by John Lennon to document the history of popular music. The result was the groundbreaking and award winning series of films made for television under the title "All You Need Is Love" The full series of films was released in 2008 to great critical and commercial acclaim. Country music was, originally, home-made music. It described the births, marriages and deaths that happened in every community. It celebrated love, just as it bemoaned the ill-fortune that came to every man. It was music with which all felt they could identify. As such, it occupied a unique place in white culture. The music was not manufactured, as in Tin Pan Alley, nor sophisticated, and this episode describes the process by which this change came about. Finally, we will be backstage at the Grand Ole Opry during one of its regular nationwide broadcasts, with a blessing to finish from Grand Ole Gospel Time. This episode includes performances from the likes of; Jimmie Rodgers, Roy Acuff, Doug Kershaw and Minnie Pearl. There are also interviews with Ernest Tubb, Roy Rogers and Tex Ritter.
