Am 26. Oktober startet “Zucchero – Sugar Fornaciari“, ein Dokumentarfilm über den italienischen Sänger Zucchero, in den deutschen Kinos. Jetzt wurde der Trailer veröffentlicht.
Für „Zucchero – Sugar Fornaciari“ haben die Regisseure Valentina Zanella und Giangiacomo De Stefano Filmmaterial aus dem Privatarchiv des italienischen Musikers und Mitschnitte seiner Konzerte zu einem Porträt zusammengetragen – garniert mit Interviews mit Musikern wie Bono, Sting, Brian May und Andrea Bocelli.
Erzählt wird die Geschichte eines entwurzelten Kindes und den hartnäckigen Weg eines Ausnahme-Musikers zum internationalen Durchbruch. Auch Adelmo Fornaciaris (so sein bürgerlicher Name) Rückschläge, Zweifel und sein Kampf gegen Depressionen werden beleuchtet, die er schließlich durch die Rückkehr zu seinen Wurzeln überwindet.
Filmperlen startet „Zucchero – Sugar Fornaciari“ am 26. September, einen Tag nach Zuccheros 69. Geburtstag, in den deutschen Kinos.

Famed Italian tenor Andrea Bocelli’s will be the subject of a concert film titled Andrea Bocelli 30: The Celebration that will get an international release this fall via Fathom. The pic will document the three-day event next month honoring Bocelli’s 30th anniversary in music.
The event is set for July 15, 17 and 19 at the Teatro del Silenzio (Theater of Silence) in Tuscany. Once a year, the natural amphitheater in Bocelli’s hometown hosts this musical festival, and the film will showcase Bocelli’s repertoire alongside duets with other performers.
The film will be directed by Grammy nominee and Emmy winner Sam Wrench, who recently helmed Taylor Swift – The Eras Tour, the highest-grossing concert film of all time. He also is behind live-performance films with Billie Eilish, Lizzo, BTS, The Weeknd and more.
Bocelli’s celebration features performances from Ed Sheeran, Brian May, Shania Twain, Jon Batiste, Russell Crowe, Sofia Vergara,...

An animated video for Mark Knopfler’s all-star charity single “Going Home (Theme From Local Hero)” – which brought together a stunning lineup of over 60 guitar gods to raise funds for Teen Cancer America and the Teenage Cancer Trust – has been released. It features the final recording of Jeff Beck along with contributions by Bruce Springsteen, David Gilmour, Slash, Ronnie Wood, Joan Jett, Eric Clapton, Pete Townshend, and Sting.
The song came out a week ago, but it was difficult to discern who was playing what part throughout the ten-minute song.

Mark Knopfler has teamed up with a host of fellow guitar legends to record a version of his song “Going Home (Theme from Local Hero)” to raise funds for Teenage Cancer Trust and Teen Cancer America.
The Dire Straits frontman tapped Eric Clapton, Slash (Guns N’ Roses), David Gilmour (Pink Floyd), Brian May (Queen), Tony Iommi (Black Sabbath), Pete Townshend (The Who), Alex Lifeson (Rush), Bruce Springsteen, Ronnie Wood (The Rolling Stones), Joan Jett, and many more, forming what he has dubbed “Mark Knopfler’s Guitar Heroes.” Notably, the star-studded version opens with the final recorded guitar track by the late Jeff Beck.
Knopfler’s longtime collaborator Guy Fletcher handled the production of the track, which might be the greatest assemblage of guitar talent to co-exist on a single song. The Sgt. Pepper‘s-style artwork was created by Sir Peter Blake.
The full song can be heard below now, featuring...

Chris Zucchero, owner of Chicago’s beloved Italian sandwich shop Mr. Beef, is on the “L” trying to get a word in on the phone. He just wrapped up a long two days of catering parties for FX’s “The Bear” Season 2, providing hot Italian beef sandwiches with sweet peppers and spicy giardiniera for Hollywood’s finest.
“The Bear” creator Christopher Storer — who Zucchero has been friends with since kindergarten — based “The Bear” on the classic establishment and shot about 90% of the pilot in Mr. Beef. Storer even cast Zucchero in the pilot as the guy in the parking lot who deals meat to Jeremy Allen White’s character Carmy.
Still, Zucchero hasn’t watched a single episode of “The Bear,” and probably won’t ever. It’s not for lack of interest or support — he just can’t afford to lose sight of the restaurant that’s been feeding Chicago for six decades,...
