It Might Get Loud

Director: Davis Guggenheim
(2008)


It Might Get Loud focuses on the careers and stylings of Jack White, The Edge, and Jimmy Page. The film is mildly entertaining, but only to the nerdiest of rock fans. It has the feel of a well-produced VH1 special.



The best part of the film is at the end, when the trio is jamming to "The Weight" by The Band. The Edge says, "Oh, I've been playing the wrong chord the whole time. It's not E minor. It's B minor." To which Jimmy Page replies, "Is it? Oh shit." Other than that splash of realism, it's an awkward affair.

Trivial Tidbits:

  • It Might Get Loud premiered at the 2008 Toronto Film Festival
