On the surface, these two movies may seem like a weird combo to watch in a row, but I promise after the experience you'll get it! 

    Repo Man is the ultimate punk rock/sci fi B-movie! It follows Otto (Emilio Estevez) - a young punk having an existential crisis after he loses his job, goes broke, and is betrayed by his best friend who steals his girlfriend to go on a crime spree with her (robbing, killing and  ordering sushi and not paying for it). Otto finds his salvation in a job repossessing cars. He comes under the sway of his wise street smart co-workers and learns to live by a higher code of ethics than the mere law of the state. Soon, Otto is mixed up in a chase for the ultimate "MacGuffin" - a Chevy Malibu with a cosmic presence in its trunk that could save or destroy the world.

    Repo Man features the greatest punk soundtrack imaginable (Black Flag! The Plugz! Iggy Pop!), the most quotable grand sweeping soliloquies in cinema history on everything from John Wayne's sexual proclivities to the meaning of life, the stinkiest/best LA punk atmosphere, and maybe the greatest ending of all time to a movie. If you have not seen it, it's a must. If you have seen it, a revisit will do you a world of good.

    The Secret Life Of Plants is a beautiful meditation on life, the universe and everything, through the lens of a documentary about the history of plants on planet earth...and in space.

     The movie is part psychedelic Stevie Wonder music video, part art film and part mockumentary. It starts with the birth of our planet and all plants and ends with Dogun Space Rituals... and there are plenty of surprises that carry you through the journey, including interpretive dancing, Stevie rowing his boat through paradise and amazing time lapse videos of the life of plants.   

A favorite of Mississippi Records for many years, don't miss this chance to watch fun and life affirming movie. Beautiful soundtrack by Stevie Wonder and directed by Waylon Green (who also directed the ' 'tunnel scene" in Willie Wonka And The Chocolate Factory and the apocalyptic insect documentary "The Hellstrom Chronicle").
