PHIL LYNOTT: SONGS FOR WHILE I’M AWAY (2021)
Starring Carl Shaaban, Huey Lewis, James Hetfield, Adam Clayton, Eric Bell, Phil Lynott and Suzi Quatro. Directed by Emer Reynolds.

Thin Lizzy were the quintessential rock band, and the band’s classic line-up of Phil Lynott, Brian Downey, Scott Gorham and Brian Robertson in full flight was absolutely electric – and in Phil Lynott, they had one of the greatest front men of all time.

old extensively through the words of Lynott himself and focusing on some of his most iconic songs, the film gets to the heart of his story, as a father, a husband, a friend, a son and as a rock icon.
