As the undeniable force behind the Beach Boys, Brian Wilson led the group into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Through a richly woven tapestry of candid interviews with family, friends, peers and Wilson himself, "I Just Wasn't Made For These Times" chronicles his remarkable, tumultuous life.
Rock luminaries, ranging from the Velvet Underground's John Cale, David Crosby and Graham Nash to Tom Petty and Sonic Youth's Thurston Moore, all comment on and pay tribute to Wilson's work. Memories from his daughters, Carnie and Wendy (of Wilson-Phillips fame), round out an insightful documentary that captures the playfulness, genius and unconquerable spirit of an American pop visionary.
