TOM PETTY: HEARTBREAKERS BEACH PARTY is finally making its long-awaited return—now streaming exclusively on Paramount+!
Originally airing just once on MTV in February 1983, this fast-paced, energetic documentary captures one of America’s greatest rock & roll band in their prime—putting the finishing touches on Long After Dark, promoting the album, and hitting the road. Nearly 40 years later, in 2024, the lost tapes from Academy Award-winning director Cameron Crowe’s debut were rediscovered, allowing for a full restoration from its original 16mm source.
Now, for the first time ever, this classic ‘80s film is widely available to a global audience—fully restored and packed with nearly 20 minutes of never-before-seen bonus content.
