Magnolia Pictures have announced that they have acquired U.S. rights to “IT’S NEVER OVER: JEFF BUCKLEY”, directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Amy Berg (DELIVERUS FROM EVIL, PHOENIX
RISING, WEST OF MEMPHIS), from Topic Studios & Fremantle.

From a press release the tag shared for the film says this: “The documentary will cover the life of the rising young star with an otherworldly voice and boundary- pushing artistry, who left the 90s music world reeling when he died suddenly, at age 30, after the release of his critically acclaimed debut album Grace. Told through never- before-seen footage from Buckley’s archives and intimate accounts from his mother Mary Guibert, former partners Rebecca Moore and Joan Wasser, Jeff’s former bandmates, including Michael Tighe and Parker Kindred, and luminaries like Ben Harper and Aimee Mann.”

Amy Berg shared this about the film: “Tve spent practically my entire career trying to make this film which takes a very intimate look at one of the greatest singers and songwriters of all time. I’m so excited Magnolia and HBO have come on board to share this film with the world and give old fans and new audiences a chance to experience Jeff from this unique vantage point. I couldn’t imagine a better team to roll this into the World!”
