Documentary about the life of one of the least likely rockers of all time. Roy Orbison was a shy boy with floppy ears and glasses. His career took off slowly. After a period in which especially others were successful with his songs, he found his own sound with record company Monument, and together with producer Fred Foster: a mix of country, rock & roll and opera. This DVD tells the story of
… his first albums with Sun Records, his hits for Monument, his comeback with The Traveling Wilbury's and his unexpected death in 1988. It is a pity that because of all the information and comments from friends and colleagues the music is a bit scanty. (MS)more
