It Might Get Loud

Belcourt Theatre

Avg. Event Rating (5.0 Stars): Add Review/Comment

There are guitar players, and then there are rock stars. It Might Get Loud is an epic, exhilarating backstage pass into the world of the latter. Over the course of one day, three generations of electric-guitar phenoms come together and let it roll. Documentarian Davis Guggenheim provides much more than an all-star jam session as he leads us to these artists' inner sanctums and illuminates the paths each one traveled to forge a sound all his own. We begin to understand how a one-time furniture upholsterer from Detroit, a London studio musician, and a Dublin schoolboy redefined the horizons of guitar playing. Meanwhile, Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), the Edge (U2) and Jack White (The White Stripes) seem genuinely to enjoy each other's company while sharing riffs, swapping stories and divulging their distinct philosophies of craft.

This soulful opus is at once a portrait of each artist and a captivating examination of the creative process. It Might Get Loud does get loud, and in the process, opens up our minds and hearts to a whole new way of listening to and enjoying what it means to rock. Dir. Davis Guggenheim, USA, 2009, 97min, 35mm

    This is a captivating, funny, and sometimes poignant foray into the creative hearts and minds of these 3 rockers. Sound and scenery alike make for a beautiful experience. I often wanted to be in the room listening to Jimmy Page - this was almost as good. I wish it had been even louder! Collapse
