"Racing Through the Forest - The History of the 1950-56 Pebble Beach Road Races". Inspired by the memoirs of the Del Monte Forest Road Race history, the Pebble Beach Concours and Pebble Beach Company teamed up with K&K Productions. Blending interviews with racers and incredible footage of the events, the film recalls the glories of this forgotten race with a video archive of its history. With over 50 interviews of legendary names in road racing such as Fred Knoop, Mick Marston, Bill Pollack, Jim Hall and Phil Remington. It chronicles the events from the first through the last Pebble Beach Road Races, which included legends like Carroll Shelby, Phil Hill and Bill Pollock in 1956. Through the ear-splitting sounds of unmuffled engines, the Pebble Beach Road Race is legendary for many reasons. It cultivated individuals from Phil Hill to Carrol Shelby. Bore witness to legendary vehicles from Skip Hudson's Roadster to the Ferrari 750 Monza. But most importantly it kick-started the American Road Race. Unfortunately, much of its legacy is lost to history, remaining only in flyers, scraps of footage and individual memory. But by piecing these together with legendary racers' first-hand accounts, we are taken back to the forgotten moments of community, the glorious roadsters and the genesis of road racing itself.

420: The Documentary

1 hr 32 mins

"Seven youthful people (representing the nation's 'youth') question why our government is still arresting people for mere possession of marijuana, even though our last three presidents, and many politicians smoked pot in their youth. Footage from 420 civil disobedience festivals is juxtaposed against ironic statements from politicos who continue to misrepresent the truth - supposedly out of concern for the very youth who have fallen prey to marijuana prohibition laws. To underscore this hypocrisy, 420 illuminates stories of college students, and others,who have been arrested, shot by police, and even murdered for mere possession of pot. 420 scans the history of pot - from the 30s to present day - exposing how the public has been duped, over and over by false propaganda and political agendas. Numerous law enforcement retirees provide shocking commentary and outspoken regret over a policy they helped enforce, only to realize it was a tragic mistake they now want to reverse.
