September brings us “DO IT AGAIN” One Man’s Quest to Reunite the Kinks
It seems like every band that ever broke up has gotten back together for a reunion tour (and the Eagles won’t stop reuiniting) except one: the Kinks. Intrepid Boston Globe reporter and first-time director
Geoff Edgers set out on a one-man mission to reunite one
of the best bands ever. His quest took him around the world
and into interviews with fellow Kinks fans Sting, Zooey
Deschanel, Robyn Hitchcock, and others. Can Edgers get
Ray and Dave Davies to talk to each other, let alone share
a stage again?
