Eric Clapton: Life in 12 Bars
Available on Paramount+, Prime Video, Hulu, Sling TV, SHOWTIME
“CLAPTON IS GOD”. With these words graffitied across London, Eric Clapton became the ultimate guitar hero. He is undoubtedly one of the most iconic figures in music – the only three-time-inductee to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, an 18-time Grammy Award winner, and widely renowned as one of the greatest performers of all time. This unflinching documentary, directed by Academy Award winner Lili Fini Zanuck and edited by Chris King (Amy, Senna, Exit Through The Gift Shop), gives audiences a rare insight into a deeply personal story encompassing the dizzying highs and extreme lows of his private and public life, made even more intimate by Clapton’s voice-over narrative assembled from historic and newly recorded interviews along with similar contributions from his close collaborators, friends and family.
