SpokAnarchy! is a 2011 documentary film that chronicles the 1980s punk rock scene in Spokane, Washington. Mixing vintage music videos, live clips, and found footage with contemporary interviews, the film portrays what happened when a group of disaffected teenagers from a small, isolated Northwest city embraced the music and fashion of the big-city punk scenes. The interviewees reminisce about their early years as rebels and misfits in a conservative town, and reflect on how their participation in the scene continues to influence their lives as middle-aged adults. Several of the cast have achieved notoriety since the perod depicted in the film, including Paul D'Amour, the original bassist for the band Tool, circus sideshow performer Zamora the Torture King, and the creator of Internet meme Keyboard Cat.

The film is not credited to a single director, but to the core production team of David W. Halsell, Erica K. Schisler, Jon Swanstrom, Heather Swanstrom, Theresa Halsell, and Cory Wees. SpokAnarchy! is available on DVD, and a soundtrack was released by Flat Field Records featuring musical performances by Sweet Madness, PP-Ku, The Doubtful Nonagenarians, Terror Couple, Strangulon, The Necromancers, S&M, Vampire Lezbos, M’NA M’NA, Social Bondage, TFL, The Moo Cow Orchestra, and Cattle Prod.

On le sait, les stars de la chanson française, en général, n'ont pas été trop intimidées - ni inquiétées - par l'occupant allemand. Certaines, d'ailleurs, se sont empressées de séduire les oreilles pétainistes et nazies. Fallait-il, ou non, continuer à chanter? Cette activité pouvait-elle passer pour une forme de collaboration? A questions dérangeantes, réponses ambiguës! Quoi qu'il en soit, et comme le montre ce film, les années sombres ont été plutôt fertiles pour la chanson française.

Clint Eastwood, amoureux du jazz et du blues, et pianiste lui-même, se propose de retracer l'histoire du piano dans le blues à travers ceux qui l'ont popularisé au XX siècle. Il choisit de rencontrer Dr. John, Fats Domino, Little Richard, Jay McShann, Dave Brubeck, Pinetop Perkins, Marcia Ball et bien sûr Ray Charles. De nombreuses séquences d'archives ponctuent le film avec de grands noms du piano comme Otis Spann, Charles Brown, etc.
