Nelson_Mandela 05/14/19 3:49:13 PM #6: | #250: The Last Waltz https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Last_Waltz#/media/File:LastWaltzMoviePoster.jpg Dir: Martin Scorsese Genre: Documentary, Musical Year: 1978 Simply put, The Last Waltz is the greatest music documentary ever produced. But this should come as no surprise--not only was its subject arguably the most ridiculous concert of all time, but it was filmed by none-other than Martin fucking Scorsese. Scorsese manages to capture the mind-boggling intensity that was The Band's farewell concert. In the midst of flawlessly performing their own hits, the greatest backup band ever was further backed up by just about every musical luminary from peak coked-out 70s rock 'n roll. Van Morrison. Ringo Starr. Eric Clapton. Joni Mitchell. Bob Dylan. Neil Diamond for some bizarre reason. If you have any interest in this kind of music, or even just to look at time capsule of the late-70s, I highly recommend checking this one out. --- "A more mature answer than I expected."~ Jakyl25 "Sephy's point is right."~ Inviso ...
