The Bee Gees: In Our Own Time [Blu-ray]

Eagle Rock Entertainment/Eagle Vision has announced that it will release The Bee Gees: In Our Own Time on Blu-ray on November 16, four days before airing on A&E. This revealing look at the history of The Bee Gees features brand new interviews with Barry and Robin Gibb, as well as Maurice Gibb shortly before his 2003 passing. Interweaved with live performances, TV and film clips, and early, rare videos of the band, this 116-minute documentary lavishly illustrates the Bee Gees experience.

Robin, Barry, and Maurice Gibb offer revealing and personal commentary on each step of the journey: their burgeoning childhood stardom in their native Australia, their first flush of success in London, the break-up and inevitable reunion, the phantasmagoria of fame ricocheting from Saturday Night Fever, and their work as songwriters, penning tunes not only for themselves, but Barbra Streisand, Celine Dion, Kenny Rogers, and Dolly Parton. It is, in essence, the history of pop music itself spanning the '60s, '70s and beyond. The Blu-ray ends on a note of hope: Barry and Robin singing anew those classic songs again for the camera, leaving the door open to more Bee Gees chapters.
