Experience the iconic rock band's legacy in the first major documentary to tell their story, directed with the era’s avant-garde spirit by Todd Haynes. This kaleidoscopic oral history combines exclusive interviews with dazzling archival footage, tracing the Velvet Underground's history from formation to the break-up of its original line-up in the early 1970s. With cooperation from surviving members John Cale and Maureen Tucker, as well as insights into the band's influential music and cinematic influences, Haynes' film offers a fittingly idiosyncratic approach to delivering a rock documentary that captures both the band and their era.
