Holly Cole Documentary Screening "My Foolish Heart"

Stratford Perth Museum - Line 34, Stratford, ON N5A 6S6, Canada

Special Film Screening July 15, 7pm,  at the Stratford Perth Museum in advance of Holly Cole’s July 23 Stratford Summer Music Performance
ENTRY BY DONATION!


The Holly Cole Trio – My Foolish Heart is a celebrated, one-hour music documentary that premiered on Global in 1993. Directed and edited by Michael McNamara, it beautifully balances dynamic live concert footage with intimate behind-the-scenes sequences, including recording sessions for the trio’s second album, Blame It On My Youth, produced by Greg Cohen (Tom Waits, Ornette Coleman)

At the core of the film is the chemistry between Holly Cole, Aaron Davis (piano), and David Piltch (bass), perfectly mirroring the mood of their early albums—intimate, sparse, and deeply emotional. The film won multiple international awards as well as 2 Canadian Gemini Awards: Best Music Program or Series, and Best Performance in a Music Program for Holly Cole.

Come see the original film July 15 at 7pm, at the Stratford Perth Museum. Aaron Davis and Michael McNamara will be on hand for a post screening Q&A.


The film won a number of prestigious awards, including

Silver Hugo Award at the Chicago International Film Festival

Gold Special Jury Award for TV and Cable Production at Worldfest-Houston

Two Gemini Awards (Best Music Program or Series, and Best Performance in a Music Program for Holly Cole)

This event is licensed, with popcorn, and entry is by donation.
