The life of Texas songwriter Guy Clark is certainly ripe for documentary treatment.  Without Getting Killed or Caught: The Life and Music of Guy Clark will trace the life of the folk pioneer from his early Texas beginnings, through his historic career and up to present day.

“Without Getting Killed or Caught includes exclusive interview footage with Clark and his friends and family,” writes producer Tamara Saviano on the film’s Kickstarter page. “The film integrates audio and video footage from personal interviews, unique never-before-seen photos and images from Clark’s private collection, and unique historical footage. We reveal how Guy spent his formative years on the South Coast of Texas in the beach town of Rockport as captain of the football team and student body president. He learned to play guitar from his father’s law partner, worked for the shrimp boat builders in the harbor, read poetry, and was awarded a National Science Foundation grant for summer study at M.D. Anderson Hospital.”
