Still Crazy
STILL CRAZY

(Comedy | Drama | Music | Romance)
[1 hour 35 minutes]


"Strange Fruit" had everything that makes a legendary rockband: money,
fame, success, groupies, a singer who died of drugs, and even a divine
ending, when lightning struck the stage during an open-air concert.
Twenty years later, all of the band members are minding their own
businesses, the idea of a band reunion is brought up by, well, public
request. Tony Costello (Stephen Rea), the former keyboard player, sets
out only to find his former friends working as a roofer, a gardener
and a hotel clerk. They all became rather everyday people, married or
still single, they definitely are not wild and crazy anymore. But with
the help of former manager Karen Knowles (Juliet Aubrey), who is still
dreaming of Brian Lovell (Bruce Robinson), the apparently deceased
lead guitarist, they all, old, fat and wrinkled as they are,
try to catch that spirit again.
