Exclusive Sneak Peek: ‘Space Cowboy’ Doc Captures Skydiving Legend Joe Jennings’ Daring Stunt to Film a Car Plummeting from the Heavens
Watch an exclusive clip from the TIFF documentary 'Space Cowboy' about Hollywood skydiving legend Joe Jennings.
Jennings’ desire to film an open-top automobile falling from the sky with four passengers sitting in the car is the narrative device used to structure the story. Jennings’ successful marriage and the decades he spent capturing seminal aerial moments with his camera for extreme sports competitions, Super Bowl commercials, and Hollywood films, including “Charlie’s Angels” and “XXX” are all part of the 98-minute docu directed by Marah Strauch (“Sunshine Superman”) and Bryce Leavitt. But the doc doesn’t shy away from the darker periods of Jennings’ life, which includes a difficult childhood, battles with depression and tragically losing his friend and fellow skydiver aficionado Rob Harris in the mid-nineties.
