Known for iconic hits such as “Little Queenie” and “Rock and Roll
Music” plus countless more, the father of Rock N’ Roll is back in the spotlight
with the feature film documentary CHUCK BERRY.
CHUCK BERRY tells the story of the Granddaddy of Rock & Roll. In this
highly anticipated feature-length documentary, the absolute instigator of Rock
and Roll, Chuck Berry is truly revealed with exclusive access to his family,
friends, famous fans and music icons he inspired.
“You could almost say
that Chuck Berry invented the teenager.” - Steven Van Zandt
“He was the most
important guitarist in rock history.” - George Thorogood
“Chuck Berry was Chuck
Berry. The definition of Chuck Berry is Chuck Berry!” - Gene Simmons
Chuck Berry’s 60th birthday concert and the drama surrounding it
were captured in Hail! Hail! Rock ‘n’ Roll, but until now, Berry's life
has never before been covered on screen. With CHUCK BERRY, Award-winning
filmmaker Jon Brewer (BB King: The Life of Riley, Nat King Cole: Afraid of
the Dark), lends new insight to the man known as the bedrock of Rock ‘n’
Roll, and several rock & roll legends reflect on what Berry meant to
them.
Chuck Berry was an undisputed and stunning combination of talent
and charisma and despite his iconic status, and reverence for his talent by
rock’s heroes John Lennon, Bruce Springsteen, Keith Richards, Steve Van Zandt,
Joe Perry, Alice Cooper (all featured in the film), Chuck was a family man who
managed to cross the racial divide in 1950’s America with the power of a
well-crafted song and a fender guitar. CHUCK BERRY features the first interview
with Themetta “Toddy” Suggs, the late guitarist’s wife of 68 years. (2018, UK, 97 min., English | dir. Jon Brewer)
