Who are the Blues Brothers?
The Blues Brothers cost untold millions of dollars and kept threatening to grow completely out of control. But director John Landis (of “Animal House”) has somehow pulled it together, with a good deal of help from the strongly defined personalities of the title characters.
The Blues Brothers is a 1980 American musical action comedy film directed by John Landis. It stars John Belushi as "Joliet" Jake Blues and Dan Aykroyd as his brother Elwood, characters developed from the recurring musical sketch "The Blues Brothers" on NBC's variety series Saturday Night Live.
For around 15 mins, I think this movie had Aretha Franklin, John Lee Hooker and Ray Charles play one after another. Its possibly one of my favourite sequence from a musical. I think the key to this movie and the Band itself was having Duck Dunn and Cropper as the Rhythm section. Matt Murphy was excellent as well.
