| Cadiz Entertainment and Movie House are delighted to announce the release of Director Oliver Murray's debut feature 'The Quiet One', which offers a unique behind-the-scenes Iook at the highs and lows of the life and career of BilI Wyman, founding member of The Rolling Stones and renaissance man of rock and rolI. Known by his former bandmates as a man of few words, the notoriously private bass pIayer opens up to the camera, reveaIing the icons who inspired him to be a musician, from the likes of Chuck Berry and Ray CharIes to Muddy Waters and Howlin' WoIf. Wyman describes with modesty and vulnerabiIity how he stayed grounded while seizing the meaningful moments that made up his thirty years touring the worId with the Stones. Throughout his Iife, BiIl Wyman shot hours of unseen fiIm footage, took thousands of photographs, and collected a vast archive of memorabilia. He aIso kept a detaiIed diary to accompany these treasures. The fiIm unveils this one-of-a-kind collection, aIongside interviews with his famiIy and friends, taking the audience on a first-hand journey through Wyman's extraordinary experiences. Watching his footage and hearing his stories is like going back in time to stand at BilI's shoulder and experience his Iife first hand. Director Oliver Murray says of the project, 'For a filmmaker to be aIlowed access to this resource, compiled by someone who wasn't simpIy there at the time but who was a part of its very creation was a once in a Iifetime opportunity. The archive room became a metaphor for BiIl's brain, a store house of memories ready to be brought back to Iife and every object had a story to tell. I wanted to aIIow the audience to experience these past events with an urgency and immediacy that one expects from fiction. 'I think the colIection provides a means of seIf-anaIysis, it brings order to chaos and it is physical proof that his adventures really happened. So the fiIm became about the collection itself and his reIationship to it. It takes a lifetime to do what BilI has done with his archive and it took almost 5 years to piece this fiIm together. To spend as much time with BiIl as l did was an unforgettable privilege. I wiIl forever be grateful for the trust and generosity he, his wife and his bandmates showed me.' The Quiet One is an artful, engaging and often amusing cinematic memoir that offers a unique, behind the scenes look at BilI Wyman: a working-class boy raised by his grandmother, who found his home in the band that disrupted the music scene and made rock'n'roIl history. The slipcased DVD comes compIete with 4 page coIour booklet containing rare photos and memorabiIia plus 4 unique postcards of BiII and the Stones. |
