About Color Me Obsessed: A film about the Replacements
Written & directed by: Gorman Bechard
One of "the seven best new music documentaries of the year." - David Browne, Rolling Stone, March 2011
With Color Me Obsessed, the first documentary on the influential '80s indie-rock band, The Replacements, director Gorman Bechard brings an extraordinary vision to a unique filmmaking challenge. Told through the eyes of fans, friends, and contemporaries, the film breaks from the traditional music documentary format of music and performances. "Not wanting to make a VH1/where-are-they-now style documentary, I decided to present the band in a more iconic way," the director explains. "I thought, people believe in God without seeing or hearing him but rather through the passion, faith, and stories of others. After watching Color Me Obsessed, I'm pretty sure music fans will believe in The Replacements in much the same way."
