The Go-Go’s is a documentary feature from Allison Eastwood and chronicled the story of the first all-female band to play its own instruments, write its own songs and soar to No. 1 on the album charts, making history. The film follows the group through their meteoric rise to fame out of the birth of the L.A. punk scene.
Love Fraud is a four-part documentary series from directors Heidi Ewing and Rachel Grady that follows the search for Richard Scott Smith, a con-man who for over 20 years used the internet and his charms to prey upon unsuspected women looking for love, eventually stealing their money and their dignity. The series unravels in real time as Smith’s victims band together to seek revenge by turning to a bounty hunter after feeling the justice system has failed them.
Belushi hails from director R.J. Cutler as he dives into a treasure trove of previously unheard audiotapes recorded shortly after iconic comedian John Belushi’s death and examines the too-short life of the once-in-a-generation talent who captured the hearts and funny bones of devoted audiences.
