Everything is Music

About This Movie

Everything is Music (1963) has this curious, almost experimental vibe to it. The film weaves together different musical styles and performances in a way that feels both spontaneous and structured, kind of like a documentary of an era. The pacing can be a bit meandering, but that gives it a unique charm, almost like you're wandering through a musical landscape. There’s not much in terms of a traditional narrative, but the way the various performances are presented showcases a distinct creativity. You get this immersive sense of the culture and sounds of the time, which is really what makes it stand out.

Finding a copy of Everything is Music can be quite a challenge; it seems to have slipped through the cracks of mainstream distribution. I’ve come across a few copies on VHS, but digital formats are rarer. Its eclectic nature and the way it captures the zeitgeist of the 60s have piqued the interest of niche collectors, especially those focused on music-related films. This one definitely has an intriguing backstory that adds to its allure among enthusiasts.
