Everyone Stares

police
Tonight I got to see one of the coolest documentaries of all time, Stewart Copeland's Everyone Stares: The Police Inside Out. Two of the three Policeman were there; Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers. Sting was in Italy and could not make the screening. Basically the film is made up of all of the Super 8 footage Stewart had shot during the time he was in The Police. You get to see the small time band become one of the biggest bands of all time, from one of the members' perspective. It's a remarkable film with some incredible music, much of it from live performances. After the film Stewart did some Q&A with the audience which was a treat. He talked about having the footage digitized and editing in Final Cut Pro. I can only hope some of it will make it to a DVD release along with the film. I give this film a big thumbs up!
