The Life and Hard Times of Guy Terrifico

Michael Mabbott, Canada, 2005, 1h 26m

Hosted by NAC Member Stephen Remus

The life of legendary -- albeit fictional -- country singer Guy Terrifico (Matt Murphy) is chronicled through a series of interviews and archival vignettes. Arising from the music scene of western Canada in the 1970s, Guy achieves fame and finds love with the ever-patient Mary Lou (Natalie Radford). But Guy's self-destructive impulses get the better of him, and his career goes off the rails, leading to an early death, or perhaps simply an untimely disappearance.
