Amy Berg returns to Sundance with her fifth film as director, following Phoenix Rising(2022 Sundance Film Fest).
My Book:
This time, she paints an elegant and compassionate portrait of the late Jeff Buckley.
But every time I finished a film, I would reach out to Mary. She did share the archive with me back then, and I was blown away by the voicemail messages and the DAT recordings and his candor, and I just kept at it. I always wanted to tell a love story about Jeff because he brought so much love and authenticity to his music. So I chose people that had a real deep connection with him to be in the film. And it is a love story at the end of the day.” — Amy Berg
Ben Harper on his friend Jeff Buckley’s voice: “You just hadn’t heard anything like it until he came along. It was as singular an instrument as has existed in the world of sound.
