A film account and presentation of the final concert of The Band.
The Band live up to their myth in Scorsese’s scorching testament.
A heady time capsule.
Impossible to view now without strong stirrings of nostalgia.
One of the most immaculately filmed rock concerts.
Scorsese reminds us of a generation of passionate, original songwriting while offering a look into the masterful world of successful artistry.
Edinburgh Filmhouse, Edinburgh from Friday December 9, 2011, until Thursday December 15, 2011. More info: www.filmhousecinema.com
