Scott Walker achieved a fame rivaling the Beatles and the Rolling Stones in the mid-60's and had the looks and the voice to be one of the biggest singing starts of all time. But instead of turning to Las Vegas for fame and fortune, Scott turned for inspiration to the films of Ingmar Bergman, the existentialist novels of Sartre and the tortured chanson of Jaques Brel and became a different creature altogether. A musician at once out of step with current trends and light years ahead of them, he morphed into one of the most influential and enigmatic figures in rock history. The first-ever documentary film about Walker's career and music, traces his evolution from session bass player on LA's Sunset Strip to his meteoric rise to fame during London's Swinging 60's as lead singer of The Walker Brothers and as a brooding, crooning solo artist, through to his current status as one of the most astonishing and important musicians of the last 30 years. watch
