SUNDANCE FILM FESTIVAL
Thundering Anvil makes some noise
By John Horn, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
January 18, 2008
PARK CITY, Utah -- The lead singer wears a dog collar and plays his
guitar with a sex toy. One of their first songs, "Thumb Hang," is
about the Spanish inquisition. And the amplifier knob actually goes to 11.

In so many ways, the heavy metal band Anvil is indeed Spinal Tap (did
we mention the drummer's name is Robb Reiner?).

But "Anvil! The True Story of Anvil," tracing the Canadian band's
resolute determination in the face of countless setbacks, isn't really
a rock 'n' roll comedy. Instead, this documentary, which premieres
today at the Sundance Film Festival, is an alternatively moving and
hilarious love story -- a tale of two people hopelessly devoted to
playing heavy metal music.

Guitarist Steve "Lips" Kudlow met drummer Reiner in 1973, and four
years later they formed Anvil. The late 1970s and early 1980s saw a
gold rush of hard-core rockers: Scorpions, Iron Maiden, Whitesnake,
Metallica, Anthrax and Motorhead among them. With its outrageous stage
antics and pulsing rhythms, Anvil was right in the mix too, its album
"Metal on Metal" envied by the band's head-banging brethren.

As a teen living in London, screenwriter Sacha Gervasi saw one of
Anvil's first British gigs. "I was blown away," he recalls. "It was
heavy music with really funny entertainment."

After meeting the band at an after-concert party, Gervasi showed Lips
and Reiner around London the next day and soon thereafter was invited
to be a roadie for Anvil's Canadian tour. "I would sit behind the drum
kit every night, watch Robb play, and he taught me how to be a
drummer," says Gervasi, who would later play with (and drop out of)
the band that became Bush.

Gervasi went to college, his musical tastes evolved and he eventually
came to Hollywood (where he co-wrote Steven Spielberg's "The
Terminal"). But he never forgot the band -- "I wondered what happened
to my old friends" -- so in the summer of 2005 he looked them up.
Anvil had never made it -- yet nearly three decades after they first
joined forces, Lips and Reiner were still making music, trying to sell
a few albums here and get a live gig there. "I thought they had split
up," Gervasi says. "But I found out they were still going."

Lips was working at a food service company, Reiner in construction.
They were in their 50s, their hair thinning, but their passion for
music hadn't dimmed over the years. Having seen all of their
contemporaries make it, Lips and Reiner weren't bitter -- they were
hungry. "I just kind of felt, 'I think there's a movie here,' "
Gervasi says.

So Gervasi hit the road with Anvil again, collecting 300 hours of
footage as the band launched a tour of Eastern Europe.

Tiziana, a girlfriend of the band's guitarist Ivan Hurd, organizes the
tour, but her organizational skills are indiscernible: Train tickets
aren't bought, plane schedules are mixed up and the band doesn't get
paid. Ever. What is supposed to be the tour's highlight -- an
appearance at the Monsters of Transylvania rock festival in front of
thousands of fans -- turns instead into a cheerless appearance in
front of 174 fans.

"It's been nothing but a nightmare," Lips says at one point. As the
tour unravels, so does Lips and Reiner's relationship. But Lips bears
no visible ill will. "I'm grateful," he says. "I don't regret a minute
of it."

Back in Canada, the band tries to record another album, "This Is
Thirteen," which will cost about $20,000 that neither Lips nor Reiner
has. Having tried the patience of family and friends, Lips and Reiner
must decide if it's finally time to call it quits or try one last
time. "I need to realize this," Reiner says, "while I can." Says Lips:
"I look at this particular chapter as my last chance."

Gervasi, who had never directed a movie, says he was unprepared for
what he would eventually capture and how Anvil's story would unfold so
much like "This Is Spinal Tap."

"On the second day of filming, my cameraman pulled me aside and said,
'Listen, you don't have to tell the rest of the crew, but you have to
tell me: Are these guys actors?' "

Gervasi says that while the movie is doubtlessly funny, it's also a
serious testament to believing in a dream. "Their dedication and
integrity and commitment is without parallel," the director says.

In an interview, Lips says Gervasi's film is strangely affecting,
especially when he sees rockers such as Motorhead's Lemmy, Guns N'
Roses' Slash and Metallica's Lars Ulrich offer glowing Anvil
testimonials. "To me, it's a little bit like I passed away and
everybody celebrated what I did -- but I get to witness it," Lips
says. "It makes me feel great that I am getting the biggest respect
from the biggest names in the business."

Gervasi brings "Anvil" to Park City not only in search of a theatrical
distributor but also with the hope that his movie might somehow help
Anvil realize its elusive wish for rock 'n' roll fame. "We've made
this movie, but no one has seen it, so nothing has changed for Anvil,"
Gervasi says. "The happy ending will be decided by the audience, and
I'm hoping that even if people don't like their music, they will go on
their website and buy their record."

Lips wasn't even sure he should pack his guitar for Park City, but
he's hoping there's at least one more big live show ahead. "The
centerpiece of it all is getting to play live -- that's what it's all
about," he says. "There's a reason actors like to do Broadway; it's
instant gratification. And nothing surpasses that."

Great clip! Sacha's cool. I mean when they first broke the news that
someone was shooting a film on AnViL, who actually knew of this guy? I
was quite skeptical at first. Sure it would be cool to us but who else?
Well, now it's surely going to be cool to the entire U.S. and Canada!
It has the potential to be a cool film to the whole world and who could
have seen this coming? Hopefully, we'll see Anvil! in theatres by
summer. Hey, isn't there a Toronto film festival? Film screening and
concert after!

Isn't great? I've never seen Robb Reiner smiling like that! They all
look so happy.

I read the blogs and reviews and I found one where it's writen that
they had a standing ovation.....plus that the movie is one of the two
highlights of the festival.

the more I've heard about this movie over the past 6-12months the more I
knew this was going to be a big deal for Anvil.  This is only the start
of big things to come for them!  I"m very excited for them!!

I remember that "LIPS" played that song in the early days. It seems
that Lips played it again with Slash and Ian of Anthrax. I found this

Sundance 2008: Live from Park City

The Anvil drops on Utah

Seeing Canadian heavy metal rockers Anvil take the stage Monday night
with "surprise guests" Scott Ian of Anthrax and Slash was the perfect
way to end a day that began with seeing the group in their darkest
hour. The documentary "Anvil! The True Story of Anvil" has already
gotten lots of attention here and here. I won't add to the film's
synopsis except to say that seeing singer Steve "Lips" Kudlow
attempting to rock out in some of Eastern Europe's most foreboding
rock joints for no pay, then returning home to raise his child with a
hopeful smile on his face was as anguishing as any invented Sundance-
drama-type misfortunes I've yet seen.

If you ever watched "Metallica: Some Kind of Monster" and wondered
what those guys would be like minus the scads of money they had to
blow on life coaches, you get an answer with Anvil.
Reminiscent of a previous Sundance doc, "American Movie," Anvil's
story is something we're preconditioned to snicker at. Who could
resist rolling their eyes at some aging, balding, semi-anonymous
metal dude trying desperately to achieve his dreams of rock demi-
godhood? But no longer. Seeing "Anvil" should give anyone who ever
perused a county fair performance lineup and mused "They're still
performing?" reason to find newfound respect for the dedication
involved.

OK, maybe a little snickering is all right.
But seeing Kudlow, drummer Robb Reiner, and the rest of Anvil on
stage at Sundance (in their first-ever Utah appearance) was seeing
that dream finally begin to become a reality.
"Can you believe they made a movie about me?" Kudlow mused on stage.
His persona slipping from the seemingly dangerous singer of songs
such as "Sex, Sex, Sex" into his real-world voice of a kinda goofy
middle-aged dad.

"Somebody pinch me," he said, looking over at Ian and Slash, just
before the band launched into a cover of "Cat Scratch Fever."
The cover to get into the Star Bar was an exorbitant $40, but I
didn't feel bad shelling it out. Here's hoping the band finally got
paid tonight.

I just saw the 4:15 showing of this movie at the Isabel Bader Theatre
today and I was thoroughly blown away!

I urge everyone here to go see this thing at all costs. It was so well
done and was completely riveting. I highly recommend it whether you're
a fan of the band or not. I took some photos before and after the
screening and will post them soon.

Dave "Squirrely" Allison was in the audience and I got to talk to him
for a bit after the screening. Apparently it was the first time he's
been back in Toronto since he left the band.

Anyway, great to be here in this group (I just joined) and don't
forget that Anvil will be playing tomorrow night at the Bovine Sex
Club at 550 Queen Street West in Toronto (Saturday, April 19th, 2008!

I'm eagerly awaiting seeing the movie....it's been getting a LOT of
press - which is great for the band.

Will probably have to wait for a DVD release though...I'm assuming
that will happen at some point.

After the screening, they had a Q&A with the band, director Sacha Gervasi and
the rest of the crew and Gervasi said there would be a theatrical release first
followed by a DVD release.

They also mentioned that there was a ton of stuff that didn't make it to the
final cut (over 300 hours was shot) so who knows? Maybe some of it will make it
to the DVD extras.

The film is really excellent.

  So Dave Allison was there eh? I wish he had agreed to be interviewed
  for the flick but he wanted nothing to do with it. There was even a
  plan to get the original lineup to do a tune onstage. Ian Dickson has
  jammed with them a couple times over the past couple of years.

Hey, it was great to see pictures of Lips, Robb and G5. It's lucky that
I knew it was Dave Allison because he really doesn't look the same. I
mean, we all change but not radically. It's too bad that he didn't
agree to be interviewed for the movie. In 1980 and 81, I thought he was
great and he always performed well on stage in QC City. It's
when "Lips" became "Anvil" that he changed a bit and after he didn't
get better. What matters is that he looks happy...Thank you again!

We wait for the movie "in the land of the freeeeee..."
