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

 THE LAST WALTZ January 6, 2009
Maryanne Goeppner (PITTSBURGH. PA, USA)
I BOUGHT THIS VIDEO FOR MY HUSBAND. HE FELL IN LOVE WITH IT. HE LOVES MUSIC FROM THE 70'S AND DID NOT KNOW THIS VIDEO EXISTED.
significant upgrade over the CD and DVD versions December 6, 2008

The Last Waltz is the music, and the BD production offers a significant upgrade over the CD and DVD versions. The 5.1 lossless PCM is a treat with extended treble, solid midrange and taught bass. Every instrument is audible and images superbly in the soundstage, which is lush deep and vibrant. Listen to Joni Mitchell sing backup vocals in Helpless. Female voices are an excellent reference for judging the audible merits of recordings, and here Mitchell sounds full and with gorgeous timbre. Throughout her subsequent performance of Coyote, the way she breaks from spoken words into more melodic placement of the notes soars above the taught rhythmic pulse of The Band. The Last Waltz focuses on the key areas to see at any given moment, whether it's the facial expression of a musician or the entire band on the stage. The 1080p resolution instantly communicates details unresolved in NTSC versions, including fabric textures, hair, or in Neil Young's case a bit of white powder near his nose, rumored to be cocaine. It may look a bit dated, but The Last Waltz is refreshing at the same time. It takes us back to an era when rock stardom was achieved more by talent and dedication to the music compared with today's music business of dancing divas and gangsta rappers.

This is one of our favorite movies. It is like having a concert and a behind the scenes tour all in one.

Saying farewell to The Band - quite astounding - September 29, 2008

Just another sign I was born in the wrong generation. To have been at this concert, wow, what a memory. Fantastic work by Martin Scorcese.
