Journey Of Dreams (Mark Shuman) (2016)

The documentary is the definitive, in-depth tale of this unique musical act's compelling career and life together and their resonant musical creativity. The film doesn't just get behind the music but inside the band as its story is primarily told by the trio's surviving members, saxophonist Dana Colley and drummers Billy Conway and Jerome Dupree plus the close-knit familial coterie that worked with them as well as Sandman's girlfriend Sabine Hrechdakian. It's punctuated by incisive commentary and observations from such friends and admirers of the group as Henry Rollins, Joe Strummer and Steve Berlin of Los Lobos. A wealth of live performance footage gathered from across Morphine's career recalls and amplifies the band's innovative yet at the same time classic, timeless and "beautifully bottom-heavy" sound, as Rolling Stone praised it. Road experiences are vibrantly brought to life as Colley reads from his tour diaries at key points in the film as well as through his pictures and Super 8 films. (bron: MVD)
