    It Might Get Loud is unlike any “rockumentary” you’ve ever scene. Three guitar virtuosos from three generations, get together to jam, swap stories and share their passion for the most influential instrument in rock ‘n’ roll history: the electric guitar. Get up close and personal and discover how a furniture upholsterer from Detroit (Jack White), a session musician from London (Jimmy Page) and a seventeen-year-old Dublin schoolboy (The Edge) each used the electric guitar to develop their unique sound and rise to the pantheon of superstar.

    Directed by Oscar® winner Davis Guggenheim, ‘It Might Get Loud’ brings together, for the first time ever, The Edge, Jimmy Page and Jack White, telling their own stories - their inspirations, their musical journeys, their techniques – in their own words.

    Discover Jimmy Page’s first appearance on TV as a skiffle-playing adolescent. Revisit the humble venue for U2’s gig – a playground ledge in Dublin. And learn how to make an electric guitar, Jack White-style, with a piece of old wood and some rusty nails. This unique and intimate film will not only appeal to guitar aficionados and the artists’ fans, but to everyone who loves music.

  • Guitar genius

    Rated - 4.5 stars  
    By Richwalsall (1 review) , 03 May 2013
    A truly incredible documentary full of wonderful insight and absolutely stunning music from three great guitarists. Wile all three are groundbreaking musicians, Jack White plays some unbelievably emotional and raw blues. A proper blues man of our time. Jimmy Page reinforces his legend, displaying utterly amazing technique and producing some sweet, sweet sound. A rock fan's dream of a film.
