Hallelujah:  Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song

2021 USA 1hr 55minutes        
Documentary/Music  PG-13 (Brief Strong Language|Some Sexual Material)   
In English

NYTimes Critic's Pick
HALLELUJAH: Leonard Cohen, A Journey, A Song is a definitive exploration of singer-songwriter Leonard Cohen as seen through the prism of his internationally renowned hymn, “Hallelujah.” This feature-length documentary weaves together three creative strands: The songwriter and his times; the song’s dramatic journey from record label reject to chart-topping hit; and moving testimonies from major recording artists for whom “Hallelujah” has become a personal touchstone. Approved for production by Leonard Cohen just before his 80th birthday in 2014, the film accesses a wealth of never-before-seen archival materials from the Cohen Trust including Cohen’s personal notebooks, journals and photographs, performance footage, and extremely rare audio recordings and interviews. Featuring Leonard Cohen, Jeff Buckley, John Cale, Brandi Carlile, Eric Church, Judy Collins, Bob Dylan, Glen Hansard, Sharon Robinson, Rufus Wainwright and many others.


"A unique and gratifying pop-music documentary"
Variety

The Hollywood Reporter

“[A] majestic, almost symphonic documentary…The film affirms the value and power of making art.”
The Wall Street Journal
