Ain't In It for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm -- Film Review

Empty

AUSTIN -- Robbie Robertson was The Band's main songwriter, but drummer and vocalist Levon Helm was its Southern heart and soul, the man whose upbringing and worldview acted as the muse for their greatest works. Jacob Hatley's documentary "Ain't In It for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm" is a captivating look at a musician hanging onto his art for dear life, even when he's too weary to perform. It should do well on the fest circuit and hold home video appeal for music fans.
