Billy Joel califica de legalmente errónea la película biográfica no autorizada

Billy Joel ha rechazado una próxima película no autorizada sobre sus inicios profesionales, afirmando que el proyecto carece de su aprobación y de los derechos necesarios sobre su música y su historia personal.

El cantante emitió un comunicado a través de un portavoz sobre la película Billy & Me. El proyecto, dirigido y editado por John Ottman, se centra en los orígenes de Joel a través de las perspectivas de su primer representante, Irwin Mazur, y su amigo de toda la vida, Jon Small. Los cineastas poseen los derechos biográficos de Mazur y Small, quien ejerce como coproductor ejecutivo y asesor del filme.
