About The Velvet Underground
The Velvet Underground covers the rise and influence of the band of the same name. Formed in the New York art scene of the 1960s, The Velvet Underground would be massively influential on rock, punk, and new wave music for decades. In this first full documentary on the band, director Todd Haynes (whose cult film Velvet Goldmine is largely inspired by Velvet Underground’s Lou Reed and other contemporary musicians) combines incredible archival footage with in-depth interviews for a hypnotic story on the band’s lasting impact in music.
