The Summer Of Love On Arte

What is Arte? Arte is a French-German TV network, which facilities are located in Strasbourg (headquarters) and Baden-Baden, that aims to promote quality programming related to the world of arts and culture (en.wikipedia).
You all know that the “Summer of Love” is the summer of 1967. In July and August 2007 - 40 years later - Arte offers a very interesting retrospective of films and documentaries regarding that period (1966 to 1970…). You’ll find the complete program (in French or in German, sorry) here.
I have already seen many of the movies selected by Arte but I was happy to watch them again like Alice’s Restaurant, Barbarella, Gimme Shelter or Tommy. Besides, the more interesting for me were some original documentaries never shown before on TV (as far as I can remember) like Andy Warhol's Exploding Plastic Inevitable, Ronald Nameth (USA/UK, 1967, 12mn), Turn Me On - 1967, Marc Huraux (FRA, 2007) with Artaud and Alan Ginsberg or Festival Express 1970, Bob Smeaton (GER, 2003) a train crossing Canada from East to West during five days – a moving Festival - where you’ll see Janis Joplin jamming with Jerry Garcia, Bob Weir and Rick Danko. Amazing.
The "Summer Of Love" period produced so many weird and fabulous pictures full of great music and you’re never tired to watch them again and again.
