Film at CAT - Chuck Leavell The Tree Man

“Chuck Leavell – The Tree Man,” is a musical documentary that explores the life and career of an American rock ‘n’ roll musician and environmental activist. Follow the life of Chuck Leavell, one of the greatest pianists and keyboardists of the past 40 years, as he divides his talent between music, family, and tree conservation. Not just known for his musical influence, he is also one of the biggest names in environmental forestry and was selected the National Tree Farmer of the Year in the United States. His commitment to the planet and his strong family ties are refreshing reminders to be kind and treat your neighbor with respect. As Leavell puts it, “if you cut a tree down, plant two for the next guy.” The documentary features interviews with many of his friends and fellow musicians including Mick Jagger, Keith Richards, and Eric Clapton. The film was the winner of the People’s Choice Award at the 2020 Sedona Film Festival. [2018, USA, 103 min, Rated: NR]. Venue: Cinema Art Theater. Presenter: Rehoboth Beach Film Society.
