Amy Maner (2003, 80 min.)
Butch Hancock Filmmaker Amy Maner wants you to know Lubbock. She wants you to see it as someplace sacred and severe, plain and preposterous and windy, the most magically drab space in all the world. If you get it – if you feel the charm of such High Plains contradictions – Maner believes
you’ll understand a larger story about Texas music, and Texas genius.
Maner, a Lubbock native, has spent the last five years creating a musical documentary called “Lubbock Lights” . Her film is about
terrain, the land that gave birth to musical icons Bob Wills, Buddy Holly and Roy Orbison. Yet it also celebrates the philosophical
terrain inhabited by an eclectic tribe of modern artists that came of age in Lubbock: singer-songwriters Butch Hancock, Joe Ely and Jimmie Dale Gilmore, collectively known as the Flatlanders. Terry Allen, too. Tommy X. Hancock. Lloyd Maines. The Texana Dames . . .
