About this product

Product Information

In 2003, female country group the Dixie Chicks ignited a maelstrom of controversy when, on the eve of the Iraq war, lead singer Natalie Maines publicly decried President George W. Bush, stating that she was ashamed he was from her home state of Texas. This was seen by many as an incendiary statement and caused a swift right-wing backlash. The band suddenly found themselves at the centre of a row over patriotism, freedom of speech, feminism, and the split between pro and anti-war Americans. It also raised concerns over politically-minded singers and actors who use their celebrity status as a platform for propaganda. SHUT UP AND SING (a tongue-in-cheek swipe at their detractors) is the next chapter in the Dixie Chicks saga; a fly-on-the-wall account of the bandÆs fall from grace and subsequent rise. Oscar-winning filmmaker Barbara Kopple (AMERICAN DREAM, HARLAN COUNTY U.S.A.) captures Maines and her bandmate-sisters as they tour the U.S. and London between 2003 and 2006. ItÆs interesting to see how, despite their defiant liberal stance, the Chicks succeed in turning a PR disaster into a commercial triumph. The film is interspersed with footage of the band performing live on stage and in the studio, proving perhaps that the girls should stick to their day jobs and leave politics to the politicians.

Total Film - Kopple ties a tale of tenacity to one of how creativity, commerce and politics are balanced in a vicious industry, London Lite - This is an insightful, smartly edited story of accidental heroines, Rolling Stone - The camera focuses on the Chicks as wives, mothers, entertainers and political flash points.

  • A fascinating and inspiring documentary.

    A fascinating and inspiring documentary, that sums up the best and worst of human spirit. The story of the three brave and talented Dixie Chicks is captivating, even for those familiar with the events that saw this band stand-up to political bullying and win over entirely new fans. I can't recommend this film enough, and as a bonus it is of course set to their gorgeous and poignant music.

  • Very good

    I had wanted to get this because both me and my father are big fans of the dixie chicks and when we were told of the trouble they had had in america i was interested to find out the girls side of the story. I would recommend this film to anyone who is a fan of the band or ANTI BUSH! xx

  • Dixie Chicks - Shut Up and Sing

    LOVE THIS FILM. Was proud to be at the second Shephard's Bush concert when they revised their controversial statement, and SUCH A PLEASURE to see the journey of conviction, talent, humour, and sheer strength of character that these women showed in the face of ignorance, hate, simplemindedness and just plain stupidity. it shows the absolute best and worst of American and Americans. couldn't have watched it - I think - until Bush was ousted from office. Would have been just too plain depressing. This movie will renew your faith in America, and give us back the national pride and the ability to hold our heads high that 4 years of W has sucked out of us.

  • Sing your heart out

    This is a very interesting film which kind of defied my expectations. I was hoping for a highly politicised, maybe Micheal Moore-esque educational and entertaining film, instead the Dixie Chicks deliver a hilarious commentary on such a turbulant period in their lives and career. I can not express just how funny this film is whilst also exploring the issues surrounding free speech and expression. A must have for sceptics and comedy fans.
