Two years before his death, Guy Clark won a Grammy Awards in the ‘Best Folk Album’ category for his work My Favourite Picture of You in 2014.
The upcoming documentary film is based on Tamara Saviano’s and Clark’s wife Susanna‘s 2016 book entitled Without Getting Killed or Caught: The Life and Music of Guy Clark. The title of both the book and film is derived from the singer’s song “L.A. Freeway“.
