Los Angeles, Calif., — March, 2018 — Indie film leader Random Media announces the debut of director Delila Vallot’s intimate and moving documentary MIGHTY GROUND, on DVD and digital platforms, April 10, 2018.   A real-world story of hope and inspiration that debuted to acclaim at the 2017 Los Angeles Film Festival, MIGHTY GROUND showcases the story of homeless LA singer Ronald Troy Collins, whose gift of music touches the lives of all those around him on his rocky road to redemption. 

MIGHTY GROUND’s national debut coincides with an ongoing series of US theatrical screenings, many of which feature musical performances by Collins.  Sponsored by Bank of America and Merrill Lynch, in partnership with leading national non-profit provider of housing for today's homeless, HomeAid America, the film continues to play to acclaim at festivals across the US and theatrically in markets including 
Los Angeles, San Diego, Denver, Austin, Portland, San Jose and Orange County, California. (Information about the ongoing tour can be found at www.homeaid.org/mightyground.)

The DVD/digital and theatrical film releases will also launch the debut of MIGHTY GROUND’s EP soundtrack (of the same name) which features three contemporary soul tracks that were recorded and are the product of the narrative of the intimate and inspiring film.   It can be pre-order at: https://apple.co/2odG6oc.

Logline: Moving documentary following the journey of a gifted, but homeless, singer living on the streets of LA Skid Row who is a living example of redemption and what it means to transform oneself from rock bottom.

More About the Film:

There are more than 57,000 homeless people in Los Angeles. MIGHTY GROUNDis the story of one of them. In MIGHTY GROUND, Ronald Troy Collins makes his way through the days by singing to people on the streets of downtown Los Angeles. As with most of the homeless, Collins is nearly invisible to the majority of passers-by, with all but a few refusing to even acknowledge his presence. But those who stop to listen find themselves captivated by the depth of his prophetic voice, and by the mystical songs he composes on the spot and directs at the listener’s soul. 

Enchanted, these listeners find themselves making a deep and unfathomable connection with Ronald that crosses racial and economic lines. Recognizing that they need to hear his song as much as he needs to sing it to them, they stay. This is exactly what happened to producer Aimee Schoof and music supervisor William Dane in January of 2016. What began as a random encounter on a downtown LA street quickly turned into a tale of vitality, heartbreak and ultimately, redemption for all involved

Picking up where the homeless as mere statistics drop off, Mighty Groundcaptures those auspicious moments when the people Collins has sung into his life collectively support and pray for his transformation, but the weight of his addiction threatens to derail his chances for redemption and recovery

The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: Look Who's Walking DVD Review

Featuring an All-Star lineup of cast members from The Walking Dead who reprised their characters to voice their stop motion counterparts, The Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: Look Who's Walking program is arguably one of the hit Adult Swim comedy series' most ambitious undertakings. With the support of the series producer Scott M. Gimple and the graphic novel's creator Robert Kirkman, both of whom participated in the creation of this TV special as well as with the blessings of AMC, the creative forces behind both shows came together along with series stars Andrew Lincoln, Norman Reedus, Jeffrey Dean Morgan, Danai Gurira, Melissa McBride, Lauren Cohan, Steven Yeun, Sarah Wayne Callies and Talking Dead Host Chris Hardwick lend their creative talents along with series stars Breckin Meyer and Seth Green.

The results are for the most part very successful though comedy like this is subjective and may appeal more to others, but not everyone. This is the nature of anything creative, but writing comedy is arguably the hardest genre to produce precisely because of the polarizing nature of comedy in general,  I think if you are a fan of the other specials or Robot Chicken in general then you should enjoy it though laughter is not guarenteed. 

The 22-minute special covers more or less the first eight seasons with some standout skits being the Welcome To Terminus song, featuring Daniel Radcliffe and Do The Negan as sung by Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Michael Rooker also sings a bit for the show and these songs will be released as part of a digital soundtrack on Friday, March 23, 2018 on i'Tunes, Google Play, Amazon, Spotify, Tidal, Pandora, and other platforms.

The program on DVD is presented in a clean 16 by 9 enhanced (1.78:1) aspect ration with a clear English Dolby Digital 5.1 Surround Soundtrack and English Subtitkes for the Deaf and Hearing Impaired encoded as an option.

Bonus features include two audio commentary tracks, one of which features Gimple and Kirkman participating, a behind-the-scenes featurette (7:28), eight deleted sketches that mostly never made it beyond the storyboard process, some behind-the-scenes walker pranks done to crew members interviewed for this home video release and more.

The interactive menus are well rendered with sound bytes from the special and are easy to navigate. A Blu-ray edition will also be released, but sold separately. 

Robot Chicken Walking Dead Special: Look Who's Walking will debut on DVD on Tuesday, March 27, 2018 at retailers on and offline courtesy of Warner Brothers.

An Evening with Al Pacino:
Wilde 
Salomé & Salomé


Wed March 28, 6.45pm 

Premiere double feature followed by an hour-long conversation with Al Pacino

Al Pacino, 2011/2013, U.S., 88m/81m, DCP
Banned from public performance in the UK for 40 years, Oscar Wilde’s wildly controversial 1891 one-act play Saloméhas been a long-standing obsession for Al Pacino. After holding a reading in 2003, Pacino brought the play to the stage in 2006 (with a cast including then-newcomer Jessica Chastain in the title role and Pacino himself as King Herod) and shot this electrifying film version. Wilde Salomé goes behind the scenes and explores the actor/director’s ongoing fascination with the play and its author. Together, these two films—screening here in their first-ever NYC engagements—create a fascinating diptych and provide a window into the artistic mind and process of one of our greatest performers.

Exclusive New York engagement
 

Sea of Love


Thurs March 29, 6.30pm — With Al Pacino and Harold Becker in person

Harold Becker, 1989, U.S., 113m, 35mm
A more romantic variant of the “intimate jeopardy” subgenre in which the titular song by Phil Phillips with the Twilights serves as a killer’s calling card while setting the tone for lonesome cop Pacino’s unprofessional involvement with prime suspect Ellen Barkin. As he covertly investigates whether she’s behind a series of lonely-hearts murders, the actors’ chemistry is to die for.
 

Revolution


Thurs March 29, 9.00pm — With Al Pacino and Hugh Hudson in person

Hugh Hudson, 1985, UK, 115m, DCP
An English armada heads for NYC to quash an uprising—but as the date is July 4th, 1776, things will not go precisely as planned. Swept up in the turbulent events are apolitical trapper Pacino (whose son and boat are pressed into service for the UK by odious Donald Sutherland) and society daughter-turned-freedom fighter Nastassja Kinski. The eclectic cast includes Steven Berkoff, Joan Plowright, Richard O’Brien (The Rocky Horror Picture Show), and Annie Lennox.

We are screening the director’s cut finessed by Hudson with new narration recorded by Pacino in 2009.
