"This 95-minute documentary follows Guy Clark, Susanna Clark, and Townes Van Zandt as they rise from obscurity to reverence: Guy, the Pancho to Van Zandts Lefty, struggling to establish himself as the Dylan Thomas of American music, while Susanna pens hit songs and paints album covers for top artists, and Townes spirals in self-destruction after writing some of Americana musics most enduring and influential ballads. Based on the diaries of Susanna Clark and Savianos 2016 book Without Getting Killed or Caught: The Life and Music of Guy Clark, the film tells the saga from Susannas point of view, with Academy Award- winner Sissy Spacek voicing Susannas narration.
Saviano, a longtime figure on the Americana scene as a journalist, artist manager, and Grammy-winning producer, had the complete cooperation of Clark, who sat for interviews on and off camera. Without Getting Killed or Caught (the title comes from Clarks song, L.A. Freeway) also offers poignant reflections from Clarks closest friends and musical allies, most prominently Rodney Crowell, Steve Earle, Vince Gill, Verlon Thompson, and Terry and Jo Harvey Allen, as well as record executive Barry Poss. The film, partially funded by a Kickstarter campaign, makes good use of Clarks songs, family photographs and archives, vintage film footage, and radio talk shows on which Clark appeared solo and in tandem with Van Zandt. The real emotional zing, however, comes from Susannas pained remembrances, culled from her private journals and secret audio diaries, as well as taped conversations that Susanna made of the trio and of the salon that regularly gathered around them--all serving as witnesses to this seemingly fated intersection of love, art, and tragedy."
