• The - The Last Waltz

THE BAND, one of the most respected musical groups during the late '60's and early '70's ended their decade-and-a-half career with a final concert in San Francisco in 1976. They brought together one of the greatest lineups of rock musicians ever assembled on one stage, including Bob Dylan, Neil Diamond, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, and Eric Clapton. The entire event was filmed by famed director Martin Scorsese (Taxi Driver, Raging Bull, The King of Comedy) and some of the world's leading cinematographers. It's a poignant, close-up look at a spectacular musical celebration, captured with an intimate film style never before used for this type of movie. The Last Waltz not only spotlights a wealth of great music, but serves as a salute to the end of an era.
