Watch Who Is Harry Nilsson (and Why Is Everybody Talkin’ About Him?) on KLRU

This definitive portrait of a remarkable artist reveals a complex and contradictory personal life, examines his spirited relationship with John Lennon, as well as exposing a legendary “bad boy” party animal who was also a devoted husband and father. Director John Scheinfeld (THE U.S. vs. JOHN LENNON, WE BELIEVE and the forthcoming I HOPE YOU DANCE: THE POWER AND SPIRIT OF SONG) brings added emotion and intimacy to the story with dozens of Nilsson recordings, rare or never-before-seen film clips, home movies and personal photos. To this are added compelling interviews with top music and movie personalities including Micky Dolenz, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Al Kooper, Randy Newman, Yoko Ono, Van Dyke Parks, Jimmy Webb, Paul Williams, Robin Williams and Brian Wilson.
