The Tribeca Film Festival will be screening a documentary of Bon Jovi as it’s centerpiece presentation on April 29th. There will be another pair of screenings scheduled throughout the remaining days of the festival. The Tribeca Film Festival is scheduled for April 22nd through May 3rd.
The Bon Jovi documentary is titled “When We Were Beautiful” and it’s about Jon Bon Jovi and his band as they performed in their 2008 ‘Lost Highway World Tour’. The documentary will be directed by Phil Griffin. A festival spokesperson stated that this film “susses out the secrets behind this legendary band’s determined and charismatic leader Jon Bon Jovi” and his band members.
Bon Jovi became a huge hit in the mid 1980’s by creating music that made the assertive style of rock more aggreable to mainstream audiences. The band’s music is still alive with several top-selling records.
