TOM PETTY: HEARTBREAKERS BEACH PARTY
Thursday, October 17th at 7:30 PM
& Sunday, October 20th at 7 PM
First debuting on MTV in February of 1983, this iconic profile piece by then first-time, now legendary director Cameron Crowe (writer & director of Jerry Maguire, Almost Famous) has become a cult classic for Petty fans, only having aired once more on MTV before becoming inaccessible to most.
MTV at this time was a relatively new network and had become instrumental in shaping music culture, being THE place for music and launching music videos. The film includes the full music video of YOU GOT LUCKY from the album LONG AFTER DARK - a pioneering video directed by Jim Lenahan, which had a futuristic style and played more like a short film. This profile piece also inspired scenes from the cult classic This Is Spinal Tap by Rob Reiner.

Featuring interviews, documentary band footage, and on stage and concert segments ranging from 1976-1983, the film will be accompanied by an introduction by Cameron Crowe alongside further interviews and additional content captured by the director. See this iconic film in cinemas for the very first time!
