"This Magnificent Moment" a documentary the Magnificent Men

[Roburt]

 Back in 2008, "This Magnificent Moment", a documentary about the Magnificent Men was in production. A trailer had been released to publicise the project in 2006 (see below) and further work was ongoing through 2007/08. A show the reformed group undertook in November 2007 was filmed, this footage to go into the proposed documentary.

Anyone know if the project was ever finished & the film released in any form ?

Last mention I see of it is Jan 2008 when it was reported as progressing as and when funds were available.

Yes, I saw that. I guess the money ran out & the project withered on the vine. VERY SAD. 

They deserved to have their story told.

I agree.  If that project was completed, and released commercially, we'd have heard about it just from the hundreds of forum-active posters on this forum and Soulful Detroit, alone, at least one of them would have brought that to our attention, not to mention a '60s Soul fan on X, or Reddit, Facebook, Instagram, or even Tick Tock, would have brought it up.  It's a shame that it didn't come to fruition.  The trailer looked very professional, and made it appear that it would be an outstanding film, well worth watching.

I’ve asked David Bupp what is happening with the documentary.
