Kino immer anders
A man dressed entirely in black, wearing a suit, combat boots, a belt, a hat, and sunglasses, steps out of prison. Outside, his brother, dressed identically, is waiting for him.
Jake and Elwood, the former frontmen of the Blues Brothers, find out that the orphanage they grew up in is facing closure andto save it they have to raise $5,000 within a few days. Their solution: to reunite their old band and organize a sold out concert. From that moment on, they are “on a mission from God.”
The Blues Brothers has the perfect formula for the ultimate cult film: a production history as crazy as it is complicated; John Belushi at the height of his acting talent, who delivers a unique performance shortly before his sudden death; a legendary soundtrack; lines that became catchphrases after the film’s release; an iconic look that has been copied thousands of times and a whole series of cameos by world-famous musicians.
