Tom Petty and The Heartbreakers: Runnin' Down a Dream
Peter Bogdanovich, a filmmaker goes documentary for the first time with this interesting movie of one of rock and rolls talents. Tom Petty: Running Down A Dream presents Petty's life and career and his work with his band the Heart breakers, Petty's earliest musical influences (which includes Elvis Presley) to the critical and commercial success of his 2006 album Highway Companion. Along the way, the film offers glimpses of Petty's early bands (including the Sundowners and Mudcrutch), his battles with record companies, record prices and control of his music, his ideas with other artists (some include George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Stevie Nicks and Roger McGuinn), his relationship with his band members, and of course his music, with plenty of footage of Petty and the Heart breakers performing on stage.
