Apple iTunesLiza: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story
“I was born, and they took a picture” says Liza Minnelli, in reference to the reality of growing up in the flashbulb-popping, gossip-saturated spotlight. After all, she is Hollywood royalty – the daughter of Oscar-winning director Vincente Minnelli and screen icon Judy Garland. Looking back at her earliest memories through her formative years, Liza finds herself hounded by tough questions and insanely high expectations from critics, the press and the public. Can she sing and dance as well as her mother? Does she have the right “look” to be a star? Can she act? "LIZA: A Truly Terrific Absolutely True Story" reveals what happened next, bringing into focus the dazzling, complex period of Liza’s life in the 1970s, just after the tragic death of her mother — as Liza confronts a range of personal and professional challenges on the way to becoming a bonafide legend. Over these years, Liza seeks out extraordinary mentors: Kay Thompson, Fred Ebb, Charles Aznavour, Halston, and Bob Fosse. They all help her transform from a performer with boundless raw talent and famous parents to a mature, beautifully-polished superstar of stage and screen. Liza takes the world by storm in films ("Cabaret", "New York, New York", "Arthur"), television specials ("Liza with a Z"), concerts (Carnegie Hall, Radio City), and Broadway shows ("The Act", "Chicago", "Liza’s at the Palace"). Her influence extends into fashion, nightlife, art and culture. Along the way, Liza earns an Oscar, an Emmy, four Tonys, a Grammy – and the undeniable status of living legend.

Halston (Director's Cut)
America’s first superstar designer, Halston rose to international fame in the 1970s, creating an empire and personifying the dramatic social and sexual revolution of the last century. Reaching beyond the glitz and glamour, acclaimed filmmaker Frédéric Tcheng reveals Halston’s profound impact on fashion, culture, and business. HALSTON captures the epic sweep of the life and times of the legendary designer Roy Halston Frowick, the man who set women free with his unstructured designs and strove to “dress all of America." Framing the story as an investigation featuring actress and writer Tavi Gevinson as a young archivist diving into the Halston company records, Tcheng expertly weaves rare archival footage and intimate interviews with Halston’s family, friends and collaborators including Jacqueline Kennedy, Liza Minnelli, Andy Warhol and Iman. What results is a behind-the-headlines look into the thrilling struggle between Halston’s artistic legacy and the pressures of big business.

Studio 54: The Documentary
Studio 54 was the epicenter of 70s hedonism - a place that not only redefined the nightclub, but also came to symbolize an entire era. Its co-owners, Ian Schrager and Steve Rubell, two friends from Brooklyn, seemed to come out of nowhere to suddenly preside over a new kind of New York society. Now, 39 years after the velvet rope was first slung across the club’s hallowed threshold, a feature documentary tells the real story behind the greatest club of all time.
