Watch a Clip from David Chase’s Not Fade Away

A clip from David Chase’s ‘60s music film Not Fade Away has surfaced and gives us an idea of the driving force behind the narrative.

The movie follows a group of teenagers who, inspired by The Beatles and the Rolling Stones, decide to form a band and try to make it in the budding industry of rock ‘n roll.

In this clip we see the band auditioning for what is likely a record deal. What immediately becomes apparent is the joy the band feels in playing music, and that the record deal is not as important as they may appear to think.

Watch the clip below. Not Fade Away opens in New York and L.A. on Dec. 21.
