He talks about Stone's biggest hit songs and the effect they had on him.[5]
After 13 years and going through 500 hours of footage the film was completed.[6] It appears that the final product as well as the majority of the work, and final completion is due to the efforts by Michael Rubenstone with a new production company, Unreal films.[7] [8] [9]
