Description
After the release of Jake Blues (John Belushi) from prison, he and brother
Elwood (Dan Aykroyd) go to visit the orphanage where they were raised by nuns.
They learn that the church stopped its support and will sell the place unless
the tax on the property is paid within 11 days.
The brothers decide to raise the money by putting their blues band back together
and staging a big gig. They may be on a "mission from God" but they're making
enemies everywhere they go. Featuring performances by some of blues finest,
James Brown, Cab Calloway, Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and co-starring John
Candy, Carrie Fisher, Henry Gibson and Steve Lawrence.
