There are Led Zeppelin fans and there are Led Zeppelin fans - and then there is Akio Sakurai, the subject of Peter Michael Dowd's fascinating documentary, Mr Jimmy.
A Japanese ex-kimono salesman, Sakurai has devoted his life to impersonating Led Zeppelin's guitar god, Jimmy Page. But "impersonating" is putting it mildly. Sakurai doesn't just want to approximate Page's playing; he prides himself on being able to recreate exactly how Page sounded, looked and moved during every single recorded concert. His obsessiveness won the approval of Page himself, who caught one of his shows in a Tokyo bar in 2012, but when Sakurai moved to Los Angeles and tried to impose his stratospheric standards on a Led Zeppelin tribute band, his colleagues weren't quite so impressed. "An incredible take on identity, artistry, projection, passion," writes David Fear in Rolling Stone, "and trying to inspire others to follow an impossible dream of second-hand perfection."
