    «SMiLE», le sourire figé de Brian Wilson «SMiLE», le sourire figé de Brian Wilson Par Matthieu Conquet — 22 mars 2020 à 18:26 A partir de ce lundi, «Libé» raconte les histoires heureuses ou tragiques de grands artistes cloîtrés. Après avoir enluminé l’hédonisme sixties , le génie des Beach Boys a mis trente - huit ans à finaliser ce qui devait être son chef - d’œuvre, entre réclusion physique ou mentale, drogues et errements. Les Beach Boys à Los Angeles vers 1967. Brian Wilson tient un miroir dans lequel se reflètent les autres membres du groupe. Photo Michael Ochs Archives. Getty Images «Je veux rester à la maison et écrire des chansons.» Dans sa singulière biographie I Am Brian Wilson, traduite en 2018 en France, le compositeur, arrangeur et producteur des Beach Boys rappelle ce moment crucial, au début de l’année 1965, où il a convaincu ses frères de partir en tournée sans lui. «Je veux rester à la maison et écrire des chansons.» Le mot «maison» reviendra dès lors toutes les deux pages, ou presque, dans le livre. Ce sont ses frères Dennis et Carl, leur cousin Mike Love, ainsi qu’Al Jardine et Bruce Johnston qui assureront l’essentiel des concerts des Beach Boys à travers le monde, quand Brian restera chez lui ou en studio pour travailler, tentant de dominer les voix qui se succèdent dans sa tête. Pour comprendre ce besoin impérieux d’isolement, il convient de revenir un petit peu en arrière. En 1964, année riche pour Brian Wilson : les Beach Boys ont enregistré quatre albums, en entier ou en partie, donné pl us de 100 concerts, ils sont enfin numéro 1 pour la première fois avec I Get Around.

He’d learned that if you stuck a nail into the ignition, the bike would start...and start it did.

He was chased by police, but eluded them, abandoned the mo- torcycle and made it back home. The police later called his father, inquiring if he owned a motorcycle. They’d recovered one involved in a high-speed chase. Ironically, police reported, there was no damage to the bike. The “thief” also properly parked it, leaving the kickstand in place. “That’s amazing,” his father told police. “I’ll be there in a minute.” He then addressed his family, including Tom Jr., who remembers barely be- ing able to look at him. “A thief stole my motorcycle,” he announced, “and there’s no damage to it.” It wasn’t until years later that Tom Jr. fessed up to his father, easing into the revelation with, “Remember when that guy stole your motorcycle?

  • I AM BRIAN WILSON Brian Wilson October 11Th, 2016
    I AM BRIAN WILSON Brian Wilson October 11th, 2016 OVERVIEW: As a cofounding member of The Beach Boys in the 1960s, Brian Wilson created some of the most groundbreaking and timeless music ever recorded. Derailed in the 1970s by mental illness, excessive drug use, and the shifting fortunes of the band’s popularity, Wilson came back again and again over the next few decades, surviving and ultimately thriving. In his memoir entitled I Am Brian Wilson, he details the exhilarating highs and lows of his life from his failing memory, including the sources of his creative inspiration throughout the decades. - - - - - - - - - EARLY LIFE: Brian Wilson was born on June 20th, 1942 to Audree and Murry Wilson. Growing up in Hawthorne, California, Wilson exhibited unusual musical abilities, such as being able to hum the melody from When the Caissons Go Rolling Along after only a few verses had been sung by his father before the age of one. Surprisingly, a few years later, he was discovered to have diminished hearing in his right ear. The exact cause of this hearing loss is unclear, though theories range from him simply being born partially deaf to a blow to the head from his father, or a neighborhood bully, being to blame. While Wilson’s father was a reasonable provider, he was often abusive. A minor musician and songwriter, he also encouraged his children in this field in numerous ways. At an early age, Brian was given six weeks of lessons on a toy accordion and, at seven and eight, sang solos in church with a choir.

    ciné SARNIA presents Love and Mercy September 27 & 28, 2015 Please check our web site at www.cinesarnia.com for upcoming films and other information Director: Bill Pohlad Cast:: John Cusack, Paul Dano, Elizabeth Banks, Paul Giamatti Year: 2013 Runtime: 120 minute Country: USA Language: English Upcoming Films Oct. 18 & 19 : Phoenix Nov. 8 & 9: A Brilliant Young Mind Nov. 22 & 23: Infinitely Polar Bear Dec 6 & 7: Learning to Drive Love and Mercy You have to love a biopic that shakes things up. Just like Brian Wilson, the Beach Boys innovator whose gifts as singer, songwriter and producer were based on experimentation. Instead of one actor to portray Wilson, sidelined by drugs and mental illness, director Bill Pohlad gives us two, both superb in different ways. Paul Dano, who put on pounds to further the moon-faced likeness, plays Wilson during the 1960s, at the height of his artistic creativity. John Cusack, who looks distractingly unlike Wilson, plays the shaken genius during the 1980s, when he barely emerged from the pill-induced haze created by therapist Eugene Landy (a full-tilt Paul Giamatti). His rescuer is Cadillac saleswoman Melinda Ledbetter (Elizabeth Banks), who became his second wife. Does Ledbetter's consulting credit skew the film dramatically? Maybe. But the whip-smart script, by Oren Moverman and Michael Alan Lerner, neatly sidesteps cliché. So does Dino Jonsater's editing, which shuns the linear to skip between time periods until juxtaposition yields clarity. Musically, the film is a miracle, right and riveting in every detail. Just watch Wilson in the studio, coaxing musicians on "Good Vibrations" and Pet Sounds , which uses whistles, bicycle bells and barking dogs to approach what Wilson hears in his head.

  • Biopic - a Film Or Documentary Depicting the Life of a Real Person Or Real Events
    Biopic - a film or documentary depicting the life of a real person or real events. Shine (1996) - DVD​ - As a child piano prodigy, David Helfgott's (Geoffrey Rush) musical ambitions generate friction with his overbearing father, Peter (Armin Mueller-Stahl). When Helfgott travels to London on a musical scholarship, his career as a pianist blossoms. However, the pressures of his newfound fame, coupled with the echoes of his tumultuous childhood, conspire to bring Helfgott's latent schizophrenia boiling to the surface, and he spends years in and out of various mental institutions. Topsy Turvy (1999) - DVD​ - Set in the 1880s, the story of how, during a creative dry spell, the partnership of the legendary musical/theatrical writers Gilbert and Sullivan almost dissolves, before they turn it all around and write the Mikado. Ali (2001) - DVD and Book​ - With wit and athletic genius, with defiant rage and inner grace, Muhammad Ali forever changed the American boxing landscape. Fighting all comers, Ali took on the law, conventions, the status quo, and the war -- as well as the fists in front of him. Ali both ignited and mirrored the conflicts of his time to become one of the most admired fighters in the world. Catch me if you can (2002) - DVD and Book​ - Frank Abagnale, Jr. (Leonardo DiCaprio) worked as a doctor, a lawyer, and as a co-pilot for a major airline -- all before his 18th birthday.

All rights reserved. With a shuffling gait and wearing jeans, sneakers and a blue plaid shirt that matches his eyes, Brian Wilson I am Brian Wilson: The Genius Behind the Beach Boys at the center of a Hollywood whirlwind. This day, he's been rushing to screenings, giving interviews and posing for photos at a Los Angeles hotel as his new biopic prepares to hit theaters on Friday. That meant re-experiencing some of his highest highs and lowest lows. Paul Dano plays the younger Wilson at perhaps the peak of his creative genius, when he stayed behind from the Beach Boys' world tour to create his opus Pet Sounds. He employed an orchestra, climbed inside a piano to plink its strings with a bobby pin, and incorporated everyday sounds like keys jangling or dogs barking into the songs. But it was such a sonic departure that it caused a rift in the band, which exacerbated an emerging personal crisis for Wilson. He began showing signs of mental illness, hearing cacophonous voices and sounds in his head. Brian Wilson: The Billboard Shoot. John Cusack plays Wilson in the s, a broken man, heavily medicated and terribly insecure, under constant watch by his Svengali-like psychotherapist, Eugene Landy Paul Giamatti. While shopping for a Cadillac, the troubled musician forms an instant connection with saleslady Melinda Ledbetter Elizabeth Bankswho would go on to liberate him from Landy's care and become Wilson's second wife.
