Showing at the Crystal Theatre*  Fri-Thu July 19-25 7:30 (PG-13) 90 min This documentary celebrates the explosion of popular music that came out of LA's Laurel Canyon in the mid-60s as folk went electric and The Byrds, The Beach Boys, Buffalo Springfield and The Mamas and the Papas gave birth to the California Sound. It was a moment (1965 to 1967) when bands came to LA to emulate The Beatles and Laurel Canyon emerged as a hotbed of creativity and collaboration for a new generation of musicians who would soon put an indelible stamp on the history of American popular music. It explores the beginnings of the Laurel Canyon music scene, using never-before-heard personal details behind the bands and their songs and how that music continues to inspire today. "A thoroughly entertaining look at the Laurel Canyon scene as well as the musical history surrounding it, Echo in the Canyon is essential viewing for rock doc fans. - Critics Consensus  Saturday July 20 5:30 (PG) 90 min Documentarian John Chester and his wife Molly work to develop a sustainable farm.

world apart from the life they once knew.
