The film will also be available to purchase digitally on 14 November.

The feature documentary gives audiences an up close and personal insight into how the once unknown boy, James Dixon Swan, became the household name and Aussie icon we know today as Jimmy Barnes.

leave “The response from fans and the general public has exceeded all our expectations and we’re amazed cinemas are extending their screenings into a third week. The support has been phenomenal,” Joffe said.
