The Beach Boys

(2024)Directed by Frank Marshall, Thom Zimny113 min · PG-13Documentary, Music
“The definitive look at America's band.”

The Beach Boys formed in 1960s California as five brothers and cousins began writing songs about surfing and cars. The documentary draws on interviews with Brian Wilson (Brian Wilson), Mike Love (Mike Love), Al Jardine (Al Jardine), David Marks (David Marks), and Bruce Johnston (Bruce Johnston). What emerges is a portrait of men who made transcendent music together, then spent decades learning what that cost them.
