Brian Wilson, la tête pensante des Beach Boys, est un génie créatif. C'est lui a qui a appris les harmonies vocales à ses deux frères Dennis et Carl. Obsédé par les Beatles, il était toujours à la recherche d'un son nouveau et souvent farfelu. Toute sa vie, il a dû se remettre d'une enfance compliquée : son père, alcoolique, Murry Wilson, était une brute qui terrorisait ses trois fils en leur infligeant des châtiments corporels. Depuis, le musicien souffre de troubles schizophréniques. Alors qu'il a sombré plus d'une fois, il trouve du réconfort auprès de Melinda dans les années 1980...

00:00Do you know who this man is? Brian Wilson.
00:02Of the Beach Boys.
00:03Ah!
00:06If everybody had a no-to
00:08Across the USA
00:10He was doing things that were so otherworldly
00:13and shaped culture in such incredible ways.
00:17It has two actors playing the central character.
00:20There's an interpretation of two eras in his life.
00:25The super creative era of the 60s.
00:27Got all kinds of new ideas.
00:30New sounds.
00:31New harmonies.
00:33And the psychologically complicated era of the 80s.
00:36It's my job to approve anyone that Brian is spending time with.
00:40Your voices.
00:41I just didn't tell you because I didn't want to scare you away.
00:44Brian in the 80s was not Brian in the 60s.
00:47Roll sound.
00:52I loved getting in that sandbox.
00:54Sitting at the piano.
00:56If you don't know the Beach Boys well
00:58or Brian Wilson's work very well
01:00you tend to think of the Beach Boys as surf music.
01:04His genius is that he hears these complex harmonies
01:08that no one else can really hear.
01:10With live musicians and a mic
01:13and he's bouncing sounds off his walls.
01:16A higher octave on the upbeats and the bridge.
01:18Let's add a little tie right here.
01:20How does that work?
01:21Two bass lines and two different keys?
01:23Well it works in my head.
01:27It was big to shoot in Los Angeles.
01:30It's a very California story.
01:32We filmed our studio scenes in the studio they did pet sounds in.
01:36They're standing on the same linoleum floor
01:41with the same things on the wall.
01:43It just makes it so real.
01:45Hey guys.
01:46Hey.
01:47To see him walk in the room was very cool.
01:51I was really nervous.
01:52He's such a strong spirit.
01:54If we can capture even a fraction of that
01:57we've got something.
01:58Good.
01:59Good.
01:59We got that part.
02:00Cut it.
02:00I want to move to Gold Star for the next part.
02:02The story is not just about music.
02:12I think it's about survival.
02:15I think it's about compassion.
02:17And I think it's about love.
02:21A big part of it was Melinda Ledbetter, his wife,
02:24giving him strength and confidence.
02:26The most beautiful things in the world
02:28are the things that are shattered and broken
02:30and then mended back together.
02:32Sometimes your inner voice wants to express itself.
02:38God only knows what I'd be without
02:42Every once in a while,
02:43every blue moon,
02:44your soul comes out to play.
02:46God only knows what I'd be without
02:50God only knows what I'd be without
02:54God only knows what I'd be without
02:57God only knows what I'd be without
