Duran Duran’s concert movie ‘A Hollywood High’ will debut in cinemas next month.
The 75-minute docu-concert film will feature footage of the band performing live on a rooftop in Los Angeles, along with interviews and archival footage detailing their long-running relationship with the city.
Their performance was shot on the roof of The Aster in Hollywood, with keyboard player Nick Rhodes explaining: “For our first US show in several years we wanted to do something really special and intimate
“After considering many options, a rooftop performance quickly became the frontrunner. It was post-pandemic, we had never done anything like that before, and we had just released a new album. Somehow it seemed like a magical doorway to the next part of our journey.”
Bassist John Taylor continues: “Duran Duran have had an enduring relationship with the city of Los Angeles since the first time we came to America
“We were determined to do something unique to celebrate our four decades together. A rooftop performance in LA with the Capitol Records building across the street and the Hollywood sign looming in the distance sounded perfect and turned out to be an extraordinary night for all of us.”
‘A Hollywood High’, directed by Gavin Elder, Vincent Adam Paul and George Scott, hits cinemas on November 3.
