BEATNIKS AND VIDS: Broken Social Scene Movie

Category: ,


Is Broken Social Scene's next move a movie? This clip recenty released by the band itself depicts a guy-gets-the-girl-and-girl-wants-to-see-Broken-Social-Scene plot. The name is borrowed from the last work about the band, a book by Stuart Berman titled, "This Book is Broken". The book chronicled the band's progress and lives of its members but the movie doesn't seem to have as much to do with the actual band. What will it become? Watch the clip at the official site for the video:

Also announced by the band, their upcoming tour will feature the likes of the Sea and Cake, Here we Go Magic and others. Check out the dates for the movie and the upcoming tour with supporting bands after the jump.

Keep Beating,

Bukowskini
