Short story:

The movie The Blues Brothers, adapted from John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd's classic Saturday Night Live skit, premieres in Chicago, Illinois, USA. A love letter of sorts to Sixties R'n'B and soul, it will help re-establish the careers of its musical co-stars, including James Brown, Ray Charles and Aretha Franklin.
