In the Court of the Crimson King: King Crimson at 50 (15)
A darkly comic documentary portrait of the legendary prog rock band King Crimson.
For over 50 years, band leader Robert Fripp has overseen a unique creative environment in which freedom and responsibility conspire to place extraordinary demands on King Crimson’s members – only alleviated by the applause of an audience whose adoration threatens to make their lives even harder. The band exists in a rewarding and perilous space in which the extraordinary is possible, nothing is certain, and not everyone survives intact.
Trailing the group on the lead-up to their 50th anniversary concert at the Royal Albert Hall, director Toby Amies playfully explores King Crimson’s intense approach to music-making and questions whether it is worth sacrificing everything for just a single moment of transcendence.
