Last clip from my thesis film about blues great Robert Johnson. This clip shows Robert as a young man studding hard, learning how to play the guitar from Ike Zinneman. The locations are a street corner and rent party. The last scene is a flashback to the crossroads… the myth of how he became a great guitarist. As with the first two clips Roberts life is told through the eyes of Son House.
