For Cameron Crowe, the man behind the PBS's October American Masters film Pearl Jam Twenty, the real surprise with Pearl Jam is that the story so far is a happy one.
Fans might not have expected that at the beginning, Crowe says, when the band was part of the grunge band rock vanguard. But despite its battles with the big business side of the music industry and the shifting tides and tastes, Pearl Jam didn't just survive, it prospered.
And that, says Crowe, is the point of the film. "Nobody dies, nobody od's, nobody goes too far off the path … How do you get from the angst and explosion of the early days to this state of grace? They really broke the rules about what it is to be a rock band."
