Earlier this month, the Melbourne International Film Festival (MIFF) announced MIFF 68 1⁄2 – a reimagined celebration of film online, following the cancellation of MIFF 2020. The fully-curated program will showcase over 100 films including 12 world premieres, Australian premieres, shorts, Q&As, special events, and more. MIFF 68 1⁄2 will be available to stream in Australia August 6-23.

Showtime released the trailer for the upcoming feature-length documentary The Go-Go’s, hailing from director Alison Ellwood (History of the Eagles, American Jihad). An official 2020 Sundance Film Festival Selection, the film chronicles the first all-female band to play its own instruments, write its own songs and soar to No. 1 on the album charts. Featuring candid testimonies from the group members, Ellwood’s documentary charts the meteoric rise to fame of a band that not only captured but created a zeitgeist. The Go-Go’s premieres on Showtime on Saturday, August 1 at 9 p.m. ET/PT.

Showtime announced the premiere dates for the documentary films “The Go-Go’s,” “Love Fraud” and “Belushi.” The Go-Go’s will premiere Saturday, August 1; Love Fraud on Sunday, August 30 and Belushi on Sunday, September 27.
