I saw TV Party at Tribeca also, but unlike Maneal I was pleasantly (very much so) surprised. I expected another puff piece decline of western civilization we are so fucked up kind of thing, but instead, I found it really made the case that somehow there was more freedom for artists back in the early 80's in NYC and I actually wished I had been there. The show clips were amazing, but the filmmakers choice to show basically what these people are up to now is the most interesting choice that could have been made. There probably wasn't much structure to the original show so trying to imitate that would have been a huge mistake. All in all, the choices made were spot on. These people were not apologizing for anything, the drug use, nothing and I'm glad that the film didn't either. It was done in a very straightforward almost PBS way, but that's what I liked about it. I learned more about that period from this film than I have from any other film on similar subjects. I'm in my mid twenties, so I was barely born when this show was on the air. It really makes you wonder if we are heading in the right direction. This film really rocked. I want to buy a copy for my collection. Does anyone have any info about when the DVD is coming out?
