“Belushi” is a new movie depicting the comedy legend’s life; it debuts Wednesday at Pilsen’s ChiTown drive-in movie theater and the virtual Chicago Film Festival.
CHICAGO (WLS) — The Chicago Film Festival opens Wednesday, with the world premiere of the movie “Belushi.””Belushi” is a vibrant reflection of the actor’s life, so big and bold, and far too brief. John Belushi was always considered a star. ABC 7 Chicago’s Janet Davies spoke with the director of “Belushi” about the comedy legend. Filmmaker R.J. Cutler learned Belushi grew up in west suburban Wheaton.”When he was 3,4 years old, he used to walk out of his family house, walk into the neighbor’s house and start performing a show in the living room and crack everybody up,” Cutler said.
