    ‘The Return of Mad Dogs & Englishmen’ with all-star music cast at Fisher Theatre

    Sedona Internatonal Film FestivalSedona AZ (October 21, 2021) – The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present “Learning To Live Together: The Return of Mad Dogs & Englishmen” showing Oct. 29-Nov. 3 at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre.

    “Learning To Live Together” is an electrifying documentary and concert film spotlighting the reunion of the celebrated “Mad Dogs & Englishmen,” Joe Cocker’s short-lived tour featuring a mammoth thirty-two piece band.

    In the spring of 1970, Joe Cocker undertook what became the legendary Mad Dogs & Englishmen tour, immortalized in a live album and concert film. Fifty years later, first-time filmmaker Jesse Lauter tells the complete story through the lens of the Grammy Award-winning Tedeschi Trucks Band’s reunion of the Mad Dogs.

    In addition to Derek Trucks, Susan Tedeschi and the entire Tedeschi Trucks Band, this reunion featured 12 of the original Mad Dogs, including Leon Russell, Rita Coolidge and Claudia Lennear, plus guest performers Chris Robinson and Dave Mason, among others.

    The film showcases inspired performances from the reunion show, along with an exclusive look at the history of the tour and never-before-seen archival materials, commentary from the original members, critic David Fricke, notable fans who attended shows on the original tour and features the last filmed interview with the late Leon Russell.

    The original Mad Dogs & Englishmen documentary is beloved in the rock-doc canon, but there is still a shroud of mystery surrounding the formation and dissolution of that band. “Learning To Live Together” not only captures the musical greatness and energy of the tribute show, it also sheds new light on the outsized myths of the original tour and delves deeper into Leon Russell’s largely unheralded role as band leader and visionary.

    With Russell’s passing in November 2016, the footage captures some of the last interviews of his life. The film provides an exclusive look at the history of the Mad Dogs and its torchbearers.

    This documentary will not only excite fans of the original, it will also educate a new generation about the original tour and this powerful and positive music.

    “Learning To Live Together: The Return of Mad Dogs & Englishmen” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher Theatre Oct. 29-Nov. 3. Showtimes will be 7 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 29, 30 and 31; and 4 p.m. on Monday and Wednesday, Nov. 1 and 3.

    Tickets are $12, or $9 for Film Festival members. For tickets and more information, please call 928-282-1177. Both the theatre and film festival office are located at 2030 W. Hwy. 89A, in West Sedona. For more information, visit: www.SedonaFilmFestival.org.

    A Bad Moon Rising

    By Tommy Acosta
    What the hell is going on? Is the fabric of society in the U.S. tearing apart at the seams? Watching those videos of teens gone wild, smashing windows, stealing from shopping centers, laughing while running over bicyclists — an omen of things to come? What can be done? Catch them? Incarcerate them. Put them in jails until they learn enough about crime to come out as skilled criminals? These kids, these young men and women of color, are growing wild in the streets. From fatherless homes, unable to properly read or write, a dismal and destitute future ahead of them. What is going to happen when they reach adulthood? The cops can’t stop them. There are simply too many. They can flash mob a phalanx of cops and just run berserk around them. What are the police to do? Shoot them? Read more→
