THE GREATEST NIGHT IN POP
AVAILABLE TO STREAM ON NETFLIX
Directed by BAO NGUYEN
Synopsis
Directed by award winner Bao Nguyen (Be Water), the film takes viewers back to January 25, 1985, when dozens of the biggest names in music convened at a Los Angeles studio and checked their egos at the door amidst the recording of a song to benefit African famine relief — one that would alter global pop culture history.Chronicled in the doc is the massive undertaking to assemble the world’s most impressive supergroup in a time before cell phones and email. That group of artists, led by the song’s co-writers and two of the most significant musicians of the 20 thcentury — Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie — came from different worlds but united to record “We Are the World.”
