Blaze Foley - Duct Tape Messiah (12A)

Blaze Foley was shot to death in 1989 at the age of 39, defending an elderly friend. The songwriter-musician was homeless and died with no physical records, but plenty of recorded material. Almost 30 years later, his legend is growing with an upcoming biopic directed by Ethan Hawke, numerous solo albums posthumously released and covers of his heartfelt songs by Willie Nelson, Merle Haggard, John Prine, Nancy Griffith, and Lyle Lovett!

The bigger-than-Texas musician Blaze Foley is now a bonafide legend. The sad, funny, and beautiful story of a tragic life well-lived is brought into sharp focus in this passionate and uplifting documentary.

"Blaze's songs have the power to connect with peoples' deepest emotions. They are honest and direct. The documentary combines Blaze's life story with his songs and presents the struggle of an artist who dedicated heart and soul to his craft."

– Kevin Triplett, Director
