Marshall's The Bee Gees documentary chronicles the triumphs and hurdles of brothers Barry, Maurice and Robin Gibb, otherwise known as the Bee Gees. It just premiered at a few film festivals this fall and it launches on HBO in December later this year. For a time, they were prominent at the Academy Awards: “Searching for Sugar Man” and “20 Feet From Stardom” won in 2012-13, and in 2015, “Amy” won and “What Happened, Miss Simone?” was nominated, but the Academy’s documentary committee has not rewarded any with a nom in the five years since."There's nothing else to say about the Bee Gees except they're f*&king awesome." HBO has unveiled the first teaser trailer for a new music documentary called The Bee Gees: How Can You Mend a Broken Heart, from producer / filmmaker Frank Marshall (directing his first ever doc despite producing many before this). The Emmys’ love of the burgeoning music documentaries field stands in contrast the Oscars ignoring prominent music docs in the last years. Music also could be said to have dominated the outstanding variety special (live) category, with the 63rd annual Grammy Awards, the Pepsi Super Bowl LV Halftime Show Starring the Weeknd, and the music-focused “Celebrating America - An Inauguration Night Special” landing three of the five slots. “David Byrne’s American Utopia,” which might have been counted as a documentary to some, landed in the pre-taped variety special categories, where it ended up with six nominations. Among those included in the nomination for “American Masters” is Alicia Keys, who was the executive producer of the feature-length episode “How It Feels to Be Free,” a look at six female Black entertainers (Lena Horne, Abbey Lincoln, Nina Simone, Diahann Carroll, Cicely Tyson and Pam Grier).
