Your Cheatin’ Heart
Star School Project Music Documentary Film Series Presents:
Show Time: Sunday, May 11 @ 3pm
Location: Monks House of Ale Repute
Film: Hank Williams: Honky Tonk Blues
“By the time Hank Williams died, drunk, drugged and alone in the back seat of his Cadillac on New Year’s Eve 1952, he had redefined country music. He was 29 years old. Honky Tonk Blues is the first feature length documentary to tell the story of County music’s most important figure and his brilliant, tortured life. Hank Williams was a recording artist for just six years and a star for four. He recorded 88 songs under his own name, half of which were hits: “Cold, Cold Heart’, “Hey, Good Lookin'”, “Jambalaya”, “Your Cheatin’ Heart’, “I Can’t Help It (If I’m Still in Love With You)”, and “I’m So Lonesome I Could Cry”. The film recovers Hank Williams from the legend. Using never before seen footage, photos and audio of Hank Williams and featuring interviews with many friends and family who have never spoken on camera before, the film tells a story of Hank Williams rise and fall in full, vivid detail.”

I own this documentary and highly recommend people go watch it. It is one of the better ones about his life.
