Chris Crofton: Nashville Famous

Shot across the better part of the last decade, Seth Pomeroy’s long-gestating portrait of Nashville-based comedian, writer, podcaster and political candidate Chris Crofton emerges from the shadows — covering its subject from ascent, descent, and to ascent again. The film intersperses archival footage from the 1990s-2010s, following Crofton from Nashville to pre-COVID exile in Los Angeles — including a pivotal roller skating injury — and features commentary/appearances by departed local luminaries Dave Cloud and David Berman. Plenty of living luminaries show up as well, including Neil Hamburger and My Morning Jacket’s Jim James in a crucial “save.”

APEX: The Story of the Hypercar

Rocket science meets the auto industry as "APEX" follows a thread that starts in the design studios and R&D labs where these "fighter jets of the street" are created, and leads to a perilous racetrack in Germany where drivers can reach new heights of speed and performance -- if they dare. Equal parts human drama and speed, "APEX" follows Swedish entrepreneur Christian von Koenigsegg, a lifelong sports car enthusiast on a personal quest to build a "mega" car whose golden ratio defies all expectations for a hypercar's velocity and power, while competing against the biggest names in motorsports for space on the world stage. With insights from top engineers and designers, "APEX" pulls back the curtain on the top-secret development facilities at Porsche, Ferrari, McLaren and Pagani, where awe-inspiring hypercars are imagined and built, and puts you inches from the action, as top drivers shake down the latest hypercars, flat-out on some of the world's greatest racetracks.
