fielding endorsements than grounders. Throw in a busload of other
misfits, and you have a team that’s destined for disaster ... or is it?

Steve, a sales executive for a natural gas company, has been dispatched to a
rural town hit hard by the economy. He and his partner, Sue, believe that the
locals will see the company’s offer to buy the drilling rights to their properties

soon becomes complicated, though, and when a slick environmental activist
arrives, suddenly the stakes are raised on all sides.

Deep in California’s San Fernando Valley, amid rows of dilapidated warehouses,
was rock ’n’ roll’s best-kept secret: Sound City. This now-defunct recording studio
housed a one-of-a-kind console, and as its legend grew, seminal bands including
Fleetwood Mac and Nirvana came here to put magic on tape. Featuring interviews
with a number of music legends, this documentary doesn’t just tell the story of a
rock shrine—it celebrates the human element of music in a digital age.
After a zombie epidemic sweeps the planet, “R,” a highly unusual member of the
undead, runs into a human survivor named Julie and rescues her from a zombie
attack. Julie sees that R is different from the other zombies, and as the two form
a bond in their struggle for survival, R becomes increasingly more human. Their
connection sets off an exciting, romantic and often comical chain of events that
could transform other zombies and maybe even the whole world.

This HBO film focuses on Alfred Hitchcock’s relationship with leading lady Tippi Hedren during the making of The Birds and Marnie. As
the famed director attempts to sculpt Hedren into the perfect blonde
of his imagination, he becomes fixated on winning her love—putting
both their careers and personal lives in jeopardy.
In 1959, the year that finds Alfred Hitchcock riding high on the success of his film North by Northwest, he shifts gears to begin shooting
a much darker story: Psycho. This foray into horror shocks everyone
except for his longtime creative collaborator and wife, Alma Reville,
who helps him persevere and create a masterpiece of the genre.

quest for inner peace creates havoc all around her, followed by

The latest package of Showtime programming features two

Michael C. Hall, Miami forensics expert Dexter Morgan spends his
days solving crimes, and nights committing them. He’s smart, he’s
good-looking and he’s got a great sense of humor—what more
could you ask for in a serial killer? Up next is a pair of back-to back
episodes of the sharply satirical “Weeds” (above), starring MaryLouise Parker as a pot-selling single mom turned Mexican mafia
princess turned government informant.
