Double Feature:

ZIGGY STARDUST AND THE SPIDERS FROM MARS, 1973, Pennebaker Hegedus 
Films, 90 min. Director D.A. Pennebaker’s filmic record of David Bowie’s 
brain-frying final concert as his Ziggy Stardust incarnation in July of 
1973 is key evidence why Bowie was suddenly catapulted to slavish cult 
adoration. A bridge between cult fetish and massive popular appeal right 
before the record industry (and the Thin White Duke himself) homogenized 
the pop star’s image into something less threatening.

LED ZEPPELIN LIVE AT THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL, 1970, Contemporary, 108 min. 
Acclaimed BBC TV director Stanley Dorfman was the personal choice of Led 
Zeppelin to film them when they performed at London’s Royal Albert Hall 
in January 1970 – just after the release of their second album, and this 
film is the finest example of the band’s early days at full-throttle. 
Dorfman hired Peter Whitehead as cinematographer on the film and 
together they filmed the concert. Dorfman and Whitehead jointly edited 
the resulting film. No flashy camera-tricks – just pure Zeppelin. “Whole 
Lotta Love", "Communication Breakdown”, "I Can't Quit You Baby" and a 
15-minute version of "Dazed and Confused”!  This will be a great night 
for Zeppelin fans! With the Aero’s 45 foot widescreen - and the speakers 
pumping out 20,000 watts - prepare for a Whole Lotta Zep! Director 
Stanley Dorfman will appear for a discussion.
