    PEARL JAM: LET’S PLAY TWO

    2017 | min | NR

    Buy Tickets



    Director
    Danny Clinch
    Starring
    Pearl Jam

    18 and up; Children 6 and up will be allowed only with an adult. No children under the age of 6 will be allowed.

    Let’s Play Two is a concert film that chronicles Pearl Jam’s legendary performances at Wrigley Field during the Chicago Cubs historic 2016 season. With Chicago being a hometown to Eddie Vedder, Pearl Jam has forged a relationship with the city, the Chicago Cubs and Wrigley Field that is unparalleled in the world of sports and music.

    From Ten to Lightning Bolt, the concert film shuffles through Pearl Jam’s ever-growing catalog of originals and covers -- spanning the band's 25-year career. The film includes exclusive interviews and a behind-the-scenes look as the Wrigleyville neighborhood transitions seamlessly from the atmosphere of a Cubs' win to the anticipation of, and preparation for, the concerts.
     
    Through the eyes of renowned director/photographer Danny Clinch and the voice of Pearl Jam, the film showcases the journey of this special relationship -- using the past and present of both the band and the Chicago Cubs through the music, the sweat and the eternal hopes of being both: a Cubs fan and Pearl Jam fan.

    So assuming this isn't a six hour film we know it's a compilation of both nights.

    ^ Chicago is not one of those cities and the film is based in Chicago. Strange.

    I don't think it was ever going to be a 6 hour film.

    I don't think it was either. . But I did wonder if it was going to be a box set of some sort with both concerts included in their entirety.

    Not in theaters but use PJ20 as an example.  It was a roughly two hour film then the DVD/Blu-Ray was three discs.  One the movie, two, only the performances and third disc extras.  I could totally see that.

    Doubtful, but the Metro and Vic are open for those dates as well.
    Nothing up yet for us.

    But I Want It Now!!!!!!
    Do you know what it's like to fall in the mud and get kicked... in the head... with an iron boot? Of course you don't, no one does. It never happens. Sorry, Ted, that's a dumb question... skip that.
  • demetriosdemetrios Canada Posts: 87,335
    I hope Cineplex here in Canada will screen the movie on October 3rd, especially here in Atlantic Canada.

    seems like it won't just be the Drafthouse, probably various independent theaters like PJ20 was

    The photo Drafthouse posted above I'm guessing maybe those who attend the Drafthouse screenings of the film will receive one of those sweet promo pennants? Or maybe something else.

    This is super preliminary.  Many more theaters will be included soon.  No way that Alamo would show this in Lubbock but not in their biggest fan base and home town of austin. Find it funny that those rednecks in Lubbock spilled the beans tho
    I'm like an opening band for your mom.

    When I search Omaha showings for the Alamo Drafthouse I get this message.....

    This show is not currently scheduled for this market.
