Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Martin Scorsese's 1978 capsule history of the Band is mixed with footage of the group's allegedly last performance (certainly their last performance as a quintet) in this particularly stylish concert film. Scorsese shoots the players and their sundry guests with the same flair and enthusiasm one can see in the later The Color of Money or Goodfellas. He also proves a good interviewer with Band members, particularly Robbie Robertson, whose sleepy-sexy good looks make a star-caliber impression in close-up. But the film's real hook is the stage show, which features a rotation of rock legends (Van Morrison, Joni Mitchell, Paul Butterfield, Bob Dylan, and so on) playing with the Band before a wildly appreciative audience. --Tom Keogh Average Rating:

The bonus interviews with Scorcese and Robertson are also worth a gander. Just to hear the ...

Rating:  - Great music & MusiciansI am at an age when some of the old rock and roll is the best. This movie has captured a lot of the magic in both the music and the performers who are tops in their field. It's starts out by saying turn up the volume and if you have a good sound system be sure you turn it up and prepare to rock. Browse for similar items by category:
