Buckley Biography Film A Go
June 16, 2005


Jeff Buckley

The Hollywood Reporter says that a film about the lives of father-and-son singer/songwriters Tim and Jeff Buckley is in the works. Writer/producer Train Houston has secured the rights to the book Dream Brother: The Lives & Music of Jeff and Tim Buckley, written by David Browne, and Houston has penned the screenplay. Tim Buckley recorded nine studio albums from 1966 to 1974 before he died of a heroin overdose in 1975 at the age of 28. His son Jeff recorded the highly praised album Grace in 1994, but in 1997 he drowned in Memphis at age 30.

Jeff Buckley is reportedly the focal point of the movie script, with Tim appearing in flashbacks. The Hollywood Reporter says that Houston has established the production company BulletProof Train with his wife and producing partner Holly Houston as a home for the Buckley script, as well as other projects.
