Synopsis

Universal Pictures are proud to announce the digital re-release of cinema classic, THE BLUES BROTHERS
for a limited time only.

When Jake Blues (John Belushi) finishes his jail time, he meets up with his brother Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) and they return to their childhood home, a Catholic run centre, only to discover that in under 2 weeks it's about to be sold to the education authority as the Church no longer funds it.

Jolted into action, the brothers join forces and reform their disbanded blues band when they realize that if they could pay the $5000 of tax owed on the property they can save their old home. The trouble is, nothing is as easy as it sounds...
