"The Grammy-nominated Long Strange Trip - which Rolling Stone named one of 2017's 10 Best Documentaries - chronicles the band's formation, musical prowess and darker side, utilizing previously unseen live footage, vintage interviews and newly filmed conversations with surviving band members Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, Mickey Hart and Bill Kreutzmann".

"Reluctant frontman Jerry Garcia and his army of devoted Deadheads are the focus of this rich rock doc produced by Martin Scorsese ... It begins as a standard, if meticulous rock doc (albeit one produced by Martin Scorsese); interviews with the band, fans, archive, hippies in body paint wigging out. But the film seeks the key to the band's magic - what elevated them from a group of musicians who toured endlessly into a US phenomenon inspiring cult-like devotion ... From their beginnings as Mother McCree's Uptown Jug Champions to Jerry's early death from a heart attack in 1995, this richly-textured film brings the band's story into living, acid-bright colour. As though being dragged through time by a giddy but knowledgeable hippy, we take in their residence in Haight-Ashbury, their involvement in the Acid Test movement, the comings and goings of various musicians".
