2022 Musical biography documentary
USA
1h 13min
Told entirely through archival clips, TV appearances, interviews and concert footage, the film invites you into the extreme life of Jerry Lee Lewis, his cohorts and his family. The ugliness of Jerry's wedding to his 13 year old cousin, shooting a couple of his bandmates and being an egomaniac of the highest order are addressed. Beyond and above that, we get tons of strange and dynamic performances, Jerry talking about how he's gonna play Christ in a film, and a deep dive into a rock n' roll and country music world rarely seen.
