Olympia (1938 film)
Olympia is a 1938 German documentary sports film written, directed and produced by Leni Riefenstahl, documenting the 1936 Summer Olympics, held in the Olympic Stadium in Berlin, Germany. The film was released in two parts: "Olympia 1. Teil — Fest der Völker" (Festival of Nations) and "Olympia 2. Teil — Fest der Schönheit" (Festival of Beauty). It was the first documentary feature film of the Olympic Games ever made. Many advanced motion picture techniques, which later became industry standards but which were groundbreaking at the time, were employed —including unusual camera angles, smash cuts, extreme close-ups and placing tracking shot rails within the bleachers. The techniques employed are almost universally admired, but the film is controversial due to its political context. Nevertheless, the film appears on many lists of the greatest films of all time, including "Time" magazine's "All-Time 100 Movies."

San Francisco
San Francisco was founded on June 29, 1776, when colonists from Spain established Presidio of San Francisco at the Golden Gate and Mission San Francisco de Asís a few miles away, all named for St. Francis of Assisi. The California Gold Rush of 1849 brought rapid growth, making it the largest city on the West Coast at the time. San Francisco became a consolidated city - county in 1856. After three - quarters of the city was destroyed by the 1906 earthquake and fire, San Francisco was quickly rebuilt, hosting the Panama - Pacific International Exposition nine years later. In World War II, San Francisco was a major port of embarkation for service members shipping out to the Pacific Theater. It then became the birthplace of the United Nations in 1945. After the war, the confluence of returning servicemen, massive immigration, liberalizing attitudes, along with the rise of the ``hippie ''counterculture, the Sexual Revolution, the Peace Movement growing from opposition to United States involvement in the Vietnam War, and other factors led to the Summer of Love and the gay rights movement, cementing San Francisco as a center of liberal activism in the United States. Politically, the city votes strongly along liberal Democratic Party lines.

Ram Balram
Ram Balram () is a 1980 Hindi action film directed by Vijay Anand. It starred Dharmendra as "Ram" and Amitabh Bachchan as "Balram". Supporting cast included Zeenat Aman and Rekha. Ajit, Amjad Khan and Prem Chopra were the villains in the film. The film marked the third time in which Bollywood eternal superstars (Amitabh Bachchan and Dharmendra) came together after their previous successful ventures in "Chupke Chupke" and "Sholay". The movie had an awesome initial opening, to thunderous responses all over India with cinema houses packed full. However, proceeds from the movie started to drop by the 4th week and it then went on to surface as the third highest-grossing film of the year earning a "Hit" at the box office. It was termed disappointing since at that time, films of Dharmendra and Amitabh were expected to earn more, who were already the most popular stars at the time. However, some box office analysts rate it as a "Superhit" when taking into consideration its net proceeds.
Ride, Rise, Roar
Comparisons with the 1984 Talking Heads documentary "Stop Making Sense" were inevitable—"The Seattle Times" even dubbed this a "sequel"—and reviews universally found the former film to be stronger. For instance, View London considers "Ride, Rise, Roar" entertaining, but "not on the level of classica rockumentaries", whereas "Stop Making Sense" is "generally reckoned to be one of the best concert movies ever made." "Time Out Chicago"s assessment of Hillman Curtis acknowledges the "challenging position" that he was in by being compared to Jonathan Demme's direction, but sums up the review by calling the film "a very satisfying experience."
