The script for Duffy's film impressed Weinstein who bought it for $300,000 agreeing to let Duffy make the film with a budget of $15 Million. Duffy's band which included his brother would also provide the score for the film, there was even an agreement for the bar Duffy worked in to be bought for him. In the documentary the footage for which Duffy had some friends film to document his rise to stardom we see events play out.
