DINNER & A MOVIE: Twenty Feet From Stardom
Millions
know their voices, but no one knows their names. In his compelling new film
TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM, award-winning director Morgan Neville shines a
spotlight on the untold true story of the backup singers behind some of the
greatest musical legends of the 21st century. Triumphant and heartbreaking in
equal measure, the film is both a tribute to the unsung voices who brought
shape and style to popular music and a reflection on the conflicts, sacrifices
and rewards of a career spent harmonizing with others.
These
gifted artists span a range of styles, genres and eras of popular music, but
each has a uniquely fascinating and personal story to share of life spent in
the shadows of superstardom. Along with rare archival footage and a peerless
soundtrack, TWENTY FEET FROM STARDOM boasts intimate interviews with Bruce
Springsteen, Stevie Wonder, Mick Jagger and Sting to name just a few. However,
these world-famous figures take a backseat to the diverse array of backup
singers whose lives and stories take center stage in the film. NOMINATED FOR a
2014 ACADEMY AWARD FOR BEST DOCUMENTARY.
