Tue, Feb 13 at 8:00pm: Introduction from musician and producer T Bone Burnett | BUY TICKETS
Ethan Coen, half of the celebrated Coen Brothers filmmaking duo, goes solo with this all-archival rock doc, whittled down to 73 minutes and stitched together from a mountain of old footage from the musician and producer T Bone Burnett. The mix of live performance clips, sass-mouthed television interviews, and the subject’s unbound showmanship adds up to an “undiluted shot of rock ‘n’ roll moonshine joy” (Variety).
“A largely first-person recollection, using snippets culled from many years of the singer’s TV interviews, interspersed with amazing live footage that highlights his incredible versatility, moving effortlessly between rock’n’roll, rockabilly, blues, blues-soul, country-rock and country-blues; acing subgenre after subgenre.” —Damon Wise, Deadline “Though it’s ‘just’ a music documentary, this is Ethan’s chance to strut his solo stuff. And he does, in a very Ethan Coen way: clever, modest, borderline invisible, but with a kick that sneaks up on you.” —Owen Gleiberman, Variety
