The Asbury Park Music & Film Festival is unlike any other event of its kind in that it explores and celebrates a single, and perhaps the most dramatic, aspect of cinema…the role of music in film.
Asbury Park Music & Film Festival started in 2017 and takes place in Asbury Park, NJ, USA
Cannes Film Festival has decided to postpone this year’s festival scheduled to take place May 12 to 23. The festival announced that it is considering options to preserve its running, the main one being a simple postponement, in Cannes, until the end of June-beginning of July, 2020.
The documentary, “Break On Thru: A Celebration of Ray Manzarek and The Doors,” directed by Justin Kreutzmann won the Best Feature Film Award at the 2018 Asbury Park Music & Film Festival (APMFF) on Sunday, in a ceremony hosted by radio host Shelli Sonstein, two-time Gracie Award winner, co-host of the Jim Kerr Rock and Roll Morning Show on Q104.3 and APMFF Board member. Break On Thru: A Celebration of Ray Manzarek and The Doors is a concert documentary from a 2016 all-star performance in Los Angeles that John Densmore and Robby Krieger, the two surviving members of The Doors, developed to celebrate what would have been Manzarek’s 70th birthday. As well as the all star concert there’s never before seen footage from The Doors archives and new Interviews from Densmore and Krieger. It’s a one of a kind documentary about a very special person and a legendary rock band.
