Yes, I know, the new Bon Jovi documentary debuted at the Tribeca film festival. Unfortunately, I was not in any kind of position to get in to see the movie.
(I do, theoretically, live close enough to drive to Tribeca. However, driving into Manhattan is somewhere near elective dental surgery on my list of fun activities, and besides, I actually have to work in the morning. Not happening.)
So far I haven’t heard much–just enough to be reassuring that this movie, despite its awful title, did not descend into art-house garbage. Now we’ll wait for it to make it to DVD–I don’t hold out any hope for this to make to an actual theater in my area.
Still bugging the local theaters about the Anvil movie though. Somehow, I think that will be the ultimate winner in terms of pop culture in the long run. Anvil finally made the cover of Rolling Stone thanks to that movie.
I so want to see both movies. The Anvil movie I want to see just because it sounds like a good movie. As for When We Were Beautiful, I understand there’s eye candy–there’s at least one backstage shot of Jon taking his shirt off. He always does know how to play to the women.
