How Many Musicians Does it Take to Make a Great Film?
Posted by Cindy on November 5th, 2009
Dave Little kindly hipped me to this little gem, showing at this year’s VideoFest22. How can I not go see the screening of a flick called 72 Musicians? Plus, the trailer has me quite intrigued…and yes, I’m going to say it…here it comes…this, my darlings, looks like a must-see film…
It’s all in the deets:
Saturday, November 7th
The Angelika
9 p.m.
Sometimes success and failure are the same thing. Especially with independent bands. Tour schedules, unemployment, day care, divorce, drinking… it’s the 23 hours you’re not on stage that’s the hard part. Shot on one stage, in one club, during four days, this documentary empowers every almost-made-it musician to speak with a single, honest, infuriating, anonymous, resonant voice. And it’s funny. And they kill live.
