Conor Oberst's most recent musical incarnation, The Mystic Valley Band, has been captured on film for a new documentary. The movie follows the first 18 months of the band's career, and is being released for free from a variety of websites. It can be downloaded from Causecast.org, an online charity site. The idea behind the free release is that fans might donate money to one of the number of charities supported by the site, which is nice. More info on the film, entitled 'One of My Kind', here.

The full doc is released on April 15th, and a trailer can be viewed below:

Super High Me is a documentary about the effects of smoking marijuana and not smoking marijuana after smoking marijuana for a long period of time. The documentary stars comedian Doug Benson. The documentary's name is a play on the documentary Super Size Me.

Benson actually gained 8 pounds during the "high" month. Everything Doug Benson did in the film is legal in California. The film also includes interviews with marijuana activists, dispensary owners, politicians and patients who comprise the medical marijuana movement. Benson claims that he tells kids "you should not smoke pot until you become a professional comedian".
Super High Me, starring Doug Benson, Brian Posehn, Sarah Silverman, Zach Galifianakis and Bob Odenkirk is currently on the festival circuit no idea what so ever if this will ever make its way over here.
