Activist-turned-director Josh Tickell helms this engaging documentary about America's dependence on oil and what people can do about it. In the tradition of WHO KILLED THE ELECTRIC CAR? and AN INCONVENIENT TRUTH, FUEL examines the history of the nation's use of oil, tracing it from Rockefeller to the present day, and also suggests a plan of action. This Sundance Audience Award winner features appearances from people as varied as Richard Branson, Sheryl Crow, Larry David, Woody Harrelson, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Willie Nelson, and Neil Young. Fuel Reviews: "FUEL is a vital, superbly assembled documentary that presents an insightful overview of America's troubled relationship with oil and how alternative and sustainable energies can reduce our country's -- and the world's -- addictive dependence on fossil fuels."-- Gary Goldstein, Los Angeles Times "Thanks to an informative, buoyant tone and director's own restless intelligence, the film preaches to the unconverted with passion, energy and graphics so clear that they would make Al Gore weep over his PowerPoint."-- Jeannette Catsoulis, New York Times “It is stylistically breezy but deeply sincere, as Tickell offers a thoughtful, well-researched argument for alternative energy.”Washington Post

Fuel review
 $17.89 
Documentary filmmaker Jean-Paul Jaud sets out to discover if contemporary society can create a food supply that isn't littered with contaminants by exploring the current trend of organic, localized food production in France. The current generation is the very first in history that will grow up less healthy than the one that preceded it. Cancer and infertility rates are skyrocketing. Could it have something to do with our tainted food supplies? By paying a visit to a remote French village where the lunch menu is comprised entirely of organic, locally grown foods, Jaud highlights the ways in which some communities are shunning food industry giants to go back to the basics. A wide variety of interviews with everyone from researchers to schoolchildren reveal the deep flaws that exist within the food industry and raise though-provoking questions about what can be done to correct them.

Fuel review
$17.34 
A married couple deals with a crushing loss in a way that's both funny and deeply sad in this comedy-drama from director, screenwriter, and star Stanley Tucci. Don (Tucci) and his wife, Janna (Patricia Clarkson), meet every night in the same shabby nightclub where Don performs a humorously shambolic magic act. Don and Janna's relationship has been on the verge of collapse since the death of their daughter, and they're trying to reconnect with each other through role-playing, so each evening they pretend they're meeting for the first time on a blind date after discovering one another through personal ads. Sometimes they assume characters that are openly confrontational, while other times they try to bring a sweetness and intimacy back into their lives, but more often than not their struggle to reclaim the love they knew ends in confusion and frustration. BLIND DATE was adapted by Tucci and screenwriter David Schechter from Theo Van Gogh's 1996 film of the same name; it was the second in a series of remakes of Van Gogh's films (following Steve Buscemi's INTERVIEW) created in response to Van Gogh's assassination by political extremists in 2004.
