Bon Jovi Documentary to Debut at Tribeca Film Festival
April 06, 2009 09:42:38 GMT
'Bon Jovi: When We Were Beautiful', a work-in-progress documentary about Jon Bon Jovi and his band members, will rock the Tribeca Performing Arts Center on April 29.
Jon Bon Jovi
This year's Tribeca Film Festival will be the host for "Bon Jovi: When We Were Beautiful" premiere. The Hollywood Reporter came up with the story, claiming that the festival held in New York from April 22 to May 3 will "unspool what is described as a work-in-progress documentary" about chart-topping band Bon Jovi.
The documentary which features behind-the-scenes of the band's Lost Highway tour last year will be the fest's center piece presentation on Wednesday, April 29 at the Tribeca Performing Arts Center. In addition to the April 29 screening, the Phil Griffin-directed film will also be screened over the following three days.
Produced by @radical.media, "Bon Jovi: When We Were Beautiful" has been described as a celebration of the band's quarter-century career. Containing interviews with band members Jon Bon Jovi, Richie Sambora, David Bryan and Tico Torres, it went beyond a traditional concert documentary as it looks at the complex relationships between band members over the group's history.

That is great for the fans that will get to see it. I think it would be interesting, but I hope it is something new and different and not something like what we have seen and heard before redone. I would like to know who chose the title for this documentary. I have a problem with "When We Were Beautiful". It sounds girlie and like a diva to me. Not like a documentary about a great band with great looking manly men. I mean how about when we were young, or still rockin', or rockin' the ages. Anything but beautiful. I can't wait to see what the documentary turned out to be and I hope the guys are happy with it and it turns out to be a piece of history for generations to come. |

I'm not crazy about the title either. I think it's a stupid name. |

I'm not expecting any cinematic greatness here. I will be pleasantly surprised if it is anything more than a cross between Access All Areas episode and VH1: Behind the Music. I do not have any high hopes that this will be anything more than a flash in the pan.

I found the title a little hard to reconcile with what I know of the band as well. Maybe someone will ask in an interview, I'd like to hear the reasoning behind it.
