If I Leave Here Tomorrow: A Film About Lynyrd Skynyrd (2018)
This authorized documentary will explore the music and backstory of the legendary American band. With the songs from the first six Skynyrd albums driving the narration, the film focuses on the story of frontman Ronnie Van Zant - his upbringing, his roots, his work ethic and his contradictory persona as both as a mythic Southern rock poet and notorious boozed-up brawler, as well as the relationships between his friends and fellow founding members Gary Rossington and Allen Collins, along with later bandmates Ed King and Artimus Pyle.

    • Trivia
      Guitarist Ed King passed away in five months later from cancer.
    • Goofs
      During the "in memoriam" segment at the end of the film, the banner Bob Burns "1952-2015" is shown. Burns, the band's original drummer, was actually born in 1950, not 1952.
    • Quotes

      Artimus Pyle: In Europe, you leave your shoes in the hallway. Leon thought it would be a really good idea to.., take a number two in some guys shoes that were in the hallway. I don't even want to know how he did it, but anyway this guy starts to slip on his shoes, and he's goose-stepping up and down the hallway, screaming at the top of his lungs! And of course now everyone is looking out their doors so he has no idea which long-haired, hippy nutcase did it. Later on Leon, "Heh-heh, I did it!"

    Turn on close caption
    As a native of Jacksonville, going to the same schools that the guys in Skynyrd went to, and being a huge fan, I have seen just about every documentary on this band. This doc used more unseen footage than I've every seen! It's a lovingly, well-made documentary, but I recommend turning on close caption to hear the interviews
