“If God had invented a hotel for rock bands, it probably would look like the Sunset Marquis.”
—Dave Marsh, Rolling Stone Magazine, 1978.

There are more opulent hotels. There are hotels with more breathtaking locations. There are hotels, even in the same neighborhood, that are famous for who has died there, but for 60 years the Sunset Marquis has been the place where artists come to live, to create, to feel at home... a clubhouse where misfits fit in.
Based on the book of the same name, the documentary IF THESE WALLS COULD ROCK will be the first to tell the story of this legendary hotel and explore why the Sunset Marquis holds such a singular place in the rock ’n roll universe.
