This week I’m joined by Stephen Chung, the director of IT’S ALL GONNA BREAK -- a documentary about the band BROKEN SOCIAL SCENE.
We discuss Stephen’s decades-long friendship with Broken Social Scene and his fly-on-the-wall documentation of the band, how they all met, why the band did not want an earlier version of their documentary to come out, Stephen’s breaking out of his shyness through his love of music and photography, how the film's story was told through the lens of Stephen's life as an immigrant kid living in Toronto, how to stay sane while making a documentary about a band with over 25 members, capturing the moment in the studio where Broken Social Scene really became Broken Social Scene, when to turn the camera off and how to know when to turn it back on again, how a documentary is truly never done, the making of the iconic Cause = Time music video, why music documentaries are so divisive & much more.
So round up your favorite 18 friends and let's start a band on this week's episode of Revolutions Per Movie.
