SONGCATCHER
Herald rating: * * *
A musicologist (Janet McTeer) visits her sister in Appalachia and stumbles on a collection of unexploited Scots-Irish ballads, preserved intact by the isolation of the Appalachian Mountains. Beautiful cinematography and wonderful music, but the script is merely a bystander. (1999)

THE TRIP
Herald rating: * * *
Peter Fonda stars in this American International Pictures production which aimed to cash in on the acid-soaked summer of love.

Written by Jack Nicholson and directed by Roger Corman, it also stars Bruce Dern and Dennis Hopper. (1967)
