Belushi

Using previously unheard audiotapes recorded shortly after John Belushi’s death, director R.J. Cutler’s documentary examines the too-short life of once-in-a-generation talent who captured the hearts and funny bones of devoted audiences. Animation sequences, directed by Robert Valley, visualise Belushi’s narrative in a moody colour pallet illustrated in Valley’s unmistakable style with particularly angled line-work and sharp shadows.
