DESCRIPTION

The career of the talented and creative, a really gifted John Belushi was unbelievably quick. His skits on Saturday Night Live brought him to the top of his popularity, and the characters created by Belushi and Dan Aykroyd were developed into the feature film “Blues Brothers”. Belushi was a comedian who entertained the entire United States but couldn’t find balance in his private life. Frustration combined with alcohol and drugs led to his death at just thirty-three years old. The director used audio tapes, recorded shortly after Belushi’s death, telling the story of a too-short life through the eyes of his loved ones, co-workers and friends.
