Two fascinating documentaries on one disc. Each tackles the politics and history of American anarchism in a unique engaging and often hilarious manner.For the first Anarchism in America filmmakers Steven Fischler and Joel Sucher took a rambling cross-country trip. Their mission was to search out evidence of anarchist activity in communities from rural Atkins Bay Maine to cosmopolitan San Francisco. A strange cast of characters emerged. Starting with the premise that Americans embody anarchist principles of freedom and independence the filmmakers were not disappointed. Along with archival footage of luminaries like Emma Goldman they introduce us to Mildred Loomis 80-years-old and still advocating back to the land individualism: beat poet Kenneth Rexroth: science fiction author Ursula Le Guin: long-distance trucker Li'l John: punk rockers the Dead Kennedys: and among many others AK Press author Murray Bookehin.The second film The Free Voice of Labor: The Jewish Anarchists traces the history of a Yiddish anarchist newspaper - publishing it's final issue after 87 years. Narrated by anarchist historian Paul Avrich the story is mostly told by the newspaper's now elderly but decidedly unbowed staff. It's the story of one of the largest radical movements among Jewish immigrant workers in the 19th and 20th centuries the conditions that led them to band together their fight to build trade unions their huge differences with the Communists their attitudes towards violence Yiddish culture and their loyalty to one another.Steven Fischler and Joel Sucher since studying with Martin Scorsese in 1969 have been making Emmy and Guggenheim award-winning non-fiction films that explore American social history.

Kev watches too much television, the Idiot Boxof the title. An unemployed hooligan, he wants there to be something in his life apart from vandalism, drink and perfunctory sex. He rages against dogs and people who are as rude to him as he is to everybody--anger is who he is. His best friend Mick is even more bad natured, and between them they concoct a doomed bank-robbery. Kev beats up the police informer who sells him the guns; the police are watching the bank, waiting for it to be attacked by an entirely different bank robber; and their stolen getaway car is reclaimed by its owner. Often very funny, Idiot Box is a terrifying film about the stuntedness of young male Australian working class lives. Ben Mendelsohn and Jeremy Sims bring pathos and wit to their portrayals of Kev and Mick, while also making it clear that these are not young men you would wish to meet or fall out with. David Caesar's deliberately jagged directorial style echoes the adrenalin-driven lives of his protagonists and keeps us constantly on edge as he cuts between story lines. --Roz Kaveney
