ANVIL: THE STORY OF ANVIL

Lifelong friends and Torontonians Steve “Lips” Kudlow and Robb Reiner founded Anvil in 1978, bridging the era of 70s hard rock and 80s metal. As bands they’d influenced rose to icon status, Anvil struggled in relative obscurity and yet their dedication to their craft and to each other never once wavered. Documented in the ensuing decades by their friend and roadie, this documentary was born, the band toured with it and brought it here for one night only.

Few classics of Indian cinema are as exhilarating as Ramesh Sippy’s 1975 hit SHOLAY, a delirious four-course meal of action, musical numbers, Indian cinema’s most iconic actors and jaw-dropping widescreen 70mm cinematography.
