In 2024, the long-thought lost 16mm reels of Tom Petty in Cameron Croweâs first film, âHeartbreakers Beach Partyâ, were finally found. The classic â80s documentary captures Tom Petty and the band in 1982-1983 as they finish, promote, and tour around the âLong After Darkâ album (their final with legendary producer Jimmy Iovine). After its initial airing on MTV in 1983, the film was deemed too experimental and abruptly pulled from the air. In the more than 40 years since, it has become folklore to fans, musicians and within the entertainment industry â even credited with inspiring scenes in Spinal Tap.
