Ronnie Hawkins – Still Alive And Kickin’

This title was originally officially released in North America, but has now been long out of print.  It is available at ridiculously high collector’s prices from some retailers.  However, we are pleased that we are now able to offer this import version at a reasonable price.

Narrator:  Dan Aykroyd

To his friends, he’s Mr. Dynamo.  To his doctors, he’s a miracle.  To the rest of the world, he’s The Hawk, the Arkansas-born King of Rockabilly who made Canada his home and his stage for more than four decades.  He’s still rocking the house today – against all odds.

In this feature length documentary, director Anne Pick spends a rollercoaster year and a half with The Hawk, from his diagnosis of terminal pancreatic cancer in 2002 through to his mysterious recovery.  He was told he was a dead man.  The obituaries were written, the tributes and tears were flowing but along the way he cheats the grim reaper.  Maybe it was the overwhelming outpouring of love, perhaps it was the talents of a teenage healer, or as he says, he just may be the luckiest hillbilly alive.  From Wanda, his wife of 42 years, and his kids, to friends like Bill Clinton, David Foster, Robbie Robertson and Kris Kristofferson, to strangers on the street, everbody is pulled into this trulyunbelievable time in the life of this living legend.
