Ain't in It for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm
Beginning with the sight of a tour bus warming its engine in a deserted parking lot, this melancholy, personal portrayal of music great Levon Helm conjures the spirit of a life spent on the road. Helm, a founding member of The Band, is featured in Jacob Hatley's unusually intimate documentary composing his first studio record in 25 years at his home in Woodstock. The ultimate survivor, he has conquered drugs, poverty, the bitter breakup of The Band, and throat cancer-but as the wistful title suggests, he was never in it for his health.
