Edmonton International Film Festival 2009

From the director of An Inconvenient Truth comes pure rock n’ roll nirvana, for rarely can a film penetrate the glamorous surface of rock legends like this one does. It Might Get Loud tells the personal stories, in their own words, of three generations of electric guitar virtuosos The Edge (U2), Jimmy Page (Led Zeppelin), and Jack White (The White Stripes). It reveals how each developed his unique sound and style of playing favorite instruments, guitars both found and invented.

Concentrating on the artists musical rebellion, traveling with him to influential locations, provoking rare discussion as to how and why he writes and plays, this film lets you witness intimate moments and hear new music from each artist. This particular summit takes place over the course of one beautiful day: when Jimmy Page, Jack White, and The Edge first met and sat down together to share their stories, teach and play.
