A Life Less Ordinary

4:00 amCivilian Conservation Corps: American Experience [#2201]
Part 2 of "The 1930s," a five-part strand that examines America's response to the unprecedented economic crisis, high unemployment, and environmental catastrophe that threatened the nation during one of history's most tumultuous decades. In March 1933, within weeks of his inauguration, President Franklin Roosevelt sent legislation to Congress aimed at providing relief for the one out of every four American workers who were unemployed. He proposed the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) to provide jobs in natural resource conservation. Over the next decade, the CCC put more than three million young men to work in the nation's forests and parks, planting trees, building flood barriers, fighting fires, and maintaining roads and trails. This film tells the story of one of the boldest and most popular New Deal experiments, positioning it as a pivotal moment in the emergence of modern environmentalism and federal unemployment relief. duration 56:16 CC STEREO DVI TVG -
5:00 amGoing On 13
This program takes an unflinching look into the face of modern-day puberty through the eyes of four urban girls of color living in California's Bay Area. The film, shot over four years, enters the worlds of Ariana, Isha, Rosie and Esme as they negotiate the precious, precarious moments between girlhood and young womanhood. Cameras travel with the girls - an African-American, a Mexican-American, a mixed-race Latina and an immigrant from India - from their elementary school, where double-Dutch and hand-games rule, to the crowded and noisy halls of middle school, where they deal with the realities of a compromised sex-ed curriculum, Internet chat rooms and malicious gossip. Using a mix of intimate interviews, cinema verite and stop-motion animation, this film chronicles the girls' coming of age: their blossoming desires and growing sense of responsibility, their hopes for the future, their difficulties learning to love themselves and their escalating tugs-of-war with their parents. duration 56:44 CC STEREO DVI TVPG -

1:59 pmCalifornia's Gold [#9009]
Norconian Resort
Huell travels to Norco and tours the magnificent but now abandoned Norconian Hotel. In the mid 1920's, Rex B. Clark, an unmatched visionary of his time, accomplished the near impossible by constructing the world-class Norconian Resort in a remote area of Southern California. The Norconian was an immediate success and frequented by the rich elite and Hollywood's finest. Unfortunately, the Club never made a nickel as the Stock Market crash and subsequent economic depression forced Clark to give up his dream after a 10 year fight.
The story didn't end there. The fabulous resort was converted into one of the pre-eminent Naval Hospitals in the US; a facility that treated survivors of Pearl Harbor and pioneered the use of penicillin, the polio vaccine and state of the art rehabilitation techniques. Subsequently, one of the finest Naval Weapons Testing sites in the nation and the California Rehabilitation Center, the first state funded addict treatment center in the country, called the old resort home; adding to the Norconian's rich and fabulous history. Huell travels to the site with Kevin Bash who is a filmmaker and historian to see this faded but beautiful structure in all its glory.
