“This definitive portrait of rock’s most fascinating and elusive outsider has pretty much everything you could possibly want from a music doc.”
***** (Highest Rating) Time Out, London

“Like the best music documentaries, SW30 blends grace and mystery.  It should delight longtime Walker fans and introduce him to new ones.”
Andrew O’Hehir, Salon.com

“Haunting.” Stephen Holden, NY Times

The next best thing to witnessing a powwow between Phil Spector and Werner Herzog.” Village Voice

“?the man, the music, the impact and the influence – a story from the other side of a parallel universe?a fine new rock documentary.” The San Francisco Chronicle
 
Scott Walker: 30 Century Man is the first-ever documentary film about Scott Walker’s career and music, tracing his evolution from jobbing bass player on LA’s Sunset Strip to his meteoric rise to fame during London’s Swinging 60’s as lead singer of The Walker Brothers (remember, The Sun ‘Aint Gonna Shine Anymore?) and as a brooding, crooning solo artist, through to his current status, at 64, as one of the most astonishing and important sound-makers of the last 30 years. This film charts the artistic journey (and the transcendent voice) of one of the most uncompromising and respected figures in music today and presents a rare look inside the most bizarre recording session (the recent “The Drift” album) ever captured on film. SW30 is a visually & structurally inventive film that subverts the typical rock-doc narrative to deliver not just the journey of a songwriter but a meditation on the creative process itself.
