ZZ Top: VH1 Storytellers
ZZ Top might seem like something of a challenge for the VH1 "Storytellers" series because while this Texas blues-rock band has a secure spot in music history, its three members don't have a reputation for being all that chatty. Billy Gibbons and Dusty Hill - the two bearded guys out front - are droll and funny. So is drummer Frank Beard, the one without a beard. But they've mostly let their music talk over the 40 years they've been playing together. This show comes across more as a ZZ Top greatest-hits concert, which certainly won't disappoint ZZ Top fans. Few bands have been as consistent in their sound over the years, and there's no let down in this performance. Originally aired: 27 June 2009. Set List: 1. Just Got Paid; 2. La Grange; 3. Jesus Just Left Chicago; Gimme All Your Lovin'; 5. Tush; 6. Sharp Dressed Man
Zzzen
Somewhere in an impassable, archaically beautiful mountain landscape, a young monk is on a meditative pilgrimage. His only companion in the sublime landscape is a chicken, a proud bird in a magnificent feather robe. But his inner peace comes to an abrupt end: a mosquito escapes from a stone monument and changes the course of everything.
With Aunt It's Not a Sin
The rich Gloria, resident for years in the United States, returns to live in her native country in Sicily, where she is welcomed by her sister-in-law, widow Antonia and her son Saro. The beautiful Gloria does not fail to arouse particular interest in the inhabitants of the place, especially in a building speculator, the engineer De Vita, who intends at all costs to get hold Gloria's land. She will be able to seduce the man, and then allow herself to the sister-in-law and the nephew before leaving for the USA.
