LOU REED Starring in "BERLIN" - Vista Theatre, Los Angeles November 8, 2013 - 12:00 midnight
"BERLIN" Starring Lou Reed and a slate of other multi-talented artists
Celebrate the life and legacy of Lou Reed at this special screening of the 2008 critically acclaimed documentary.
33 years after his ambitious concept album Berlin was pronounced dead on arrival, Lou Reed reteams with producers Bob Ezrin and Hal Willner to stage live performances of the now-classic release at concert venues all across the globe. The album, which was savaged by critics upon release, was scored with orchestral arrangements and follows several characters as they experience jealousy, rage, and loss. While many turned their backs on the release back in 1973, the tide eventually turned and Berlin was even named by Rolling Stone as one of the top 500 albums ever released. Filmed during a five-night stint at St. Ann's Warehouse in Brooklyn, N.Y., this belated, live rendition of Berlin features an impressionistic backdrop filmed by director Julian Schnabel's daughter Lola and haunting backup vocals courtesy of the Brooklyn Youth Chorus.
