EAT THAT QUESTION: FRANK ZAPPA IN HIS OWN WORDS

It is only fitting that a comet is named in Frank Zappa’s honor. The famed musical anarchist, agitator and independent thinker created music that seemed to originate from another world. Eat That Question is a subtle, skillful montage constructed solely from historic footage, spanning Zappa’s roughly 40-year career. Utilizing obscure TV interviews and many forgotten performances, this fascinating documentary follows Zappa from clean-shaven, besuited youth, to fearless chief freak, to his relentlessly productive final days before his death at 52. “Eat That Question collects disparate concepts and perceptions and unifies them into a riveting film, delivered in my father’s own words. It’s a remarkable history lesson and serves as a gateway into his musical mind.” – Dweezil Zappa
