The Stories Behind the Making of The Blues Brothers is an hour- long documentary featuring every participant from the film. Star and co-writer Dan Aykroyd explains how a joke that he and best friend John Belushi shared with friends evolved from a Saturday Night Live skit to a best-selling album and then to a film. Director John Landis covers the difficult production, from the outrageous stunts to Belushi's disappearances from the set.
Elwood está prestes a iniciar uma nova missão: unir sua velha banda - desta vez com a ajuda de um emotivo barman - para competir na Batalha das Bandas de Queen Moussette e colocar o orfão Buster de volta no caminho da redenção. Com as presenças especiais de B.B King, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Johnny Lang, Blues Traveler, Eric Clapton e muitos outros, esta é uma comédia musical cheia de ação, com muito Blues e Soul.
Writer Tom Davis hosts a Blues Brothers retrospective that tells the whole truth about the legendary band's early days and righteous ways. The Blues Brothers were an unforgettable part of Saturday Night Live's golden era, making their musical debut in bee costumes singing "I'm a King Bee," and becoming an overnight sensation. Switching to hats and shades inspired by John Lee Hooker, they combined classic Chicago Blues with Stax-Volt R&B to create a sound all their own. Their first album, Briefcase Full of Blues, went double-platinum and led quickly to their hit movie and milestone soundtrack album. The rest is history, and it's all here in a music-filled, memory-blasting account of a band that will always be on a mission from God.
