Eddie & The Cruisers

Deze film heeft geen Nederlandstalige ondertiteling.

They say rock 'n' roll never dies, but one dark night in 1963, Eddie Wilson's car took a dive off a Jersey bridge with the troubled rock idol at the wheel. His body was never found. Tom Berenger (Platoon), Michael Pare (Streets of fire) and Ellen Barkin (Sea of love) star in this cool, compelling classic that really rocks.

Twenty years after the lead singer (Pare) of Eddie and the Cruisers disappeared, the band's songs are hotter than ever. And renewed interest in the band leads TV reporter Maggie Foley (Barkin) to pursue a tantalising mystery. What if Eddie is still alive? The circumstances surrounding his death are just shadowy enough to make it a distinct possibility, and someone (could it be Eddie) has been ransacking the homes of surviving band members in a desperate search for tapes of the group's visionary, never released album.

As Maggie interviews the former Cruisers, the pieces of the puzzle start to fit, but only until still deeper mysteries begin to surface.
