Being Evel

Streaming video - 2015

Millions know the man; few know his story. Academy Award-winning director Daniel Junge and producer Johnny Knoxville take a candid look at daredevil Evel Knievel, while reflecting on our voracious public appetite for heroes and spectacle. Nominated for the Grand Jury Prize for Best Documentary at the **Sundance Film Festival**. *"A savvy documentary that gives the granddaddy of extreme sports his due while gauging the national climate that welcomed his shrewdly timed arrival." - Michael Rechtshaffen, **The Los Angeles Times***
