(DIRECTORS CUT) If anyone needs AA, the Betty Ford Clinic, and a visit with Sigmund Freud, it's Bill, a middle-aged, a-social dipsomaniac using painkillers and vodka tonics to rationalize his erratic behavior. After a series of hallucinations feed his xenophobic paranoia, he begins to plot revenge against his imagined conspirators. His impulsive actions snowball into unbridled chaos against a chance group of strangers that have the misfortune of crossing his path. Voted "Best Film to Watch While Getting Baked" by Gettin' Hi Media. "The Charles Bukowski-meets-Shemp Howard dipsomaniacal comedy..." -John Beifuss. The Commercial Appeal.

For almost 60 years the B-17 bomber, the Memphis Belle, called Memphis, Tennessee home. In Oct. 2005, The U.S. Air Force removed one of the most famous aircraft in the world from the possession of the City of Memphis because of the lack of public support. This is the story of 60 years of neglect, apathy and disinterest by the City of Memphis to one of it's most important icons. A documentary film that focuses on the history of the Belle in Memphis and emphasizes the final days and the volunteers who tried to keep another Memphis icon from disappearing. Nominated for best documentary at the 2008 BBIFF - WINNER 2nd Place. Directed and Produced by Ken Axmaker, Jr. for more info: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1247243/

In 2008 LTTM was granted access to document the slow demise of the tallest building in Memphis, Tennessee, 100 North Main. The haunting images captured tell a repeating story of Memphis and another neglected and forgotten landmark disappearing due to the lack of respect for what gives the city character. Since these photo's were taken, vandals have destroyed a lot what is documented here. A sad demise for what is still the tallest building in Memphis...https://youtu.be/04s31wBAryc https://www.imdb.com/title/tt10700010
