Synopsis |
|
Benjamin Smoke is a documentary by
directors Jem Cohen (Fugazi:
Instrument) and Peter Sillen (Speed
Racer) on legendary underground
musician Benjamin. Benjamin Smoke
follows the crooked path of this
fringe-dweller, speed-freak,
occasional drag-queen and all-around
renegade living in the hidden
Atlanta neighborhood called "Cabbagetown,"
and playing with his band Smoke. The
DVD edition includes over forty
minutes of outtakes and interviews
with Benjamin, bonus live footage of
Smoke, and performances of
unreleased tribute songs by Cat
Power and Vic Chesnutt. |
