The Last Waltz
from Fifteen Minute Film Fanatics · host Fifteen-Minute Film Fanatics
Continuing with the concert-movie theme, Dan and Mike discuss Martin Scorsese's The Last Waltz (1978). No arguments here: the two gush over the movie and how it serves as a fitting elegy of the Woodstock era. They evaluate the guest stars, talk about their favorite songs, and carefully use the word "peak" when discussing Bob Dylan. The show ends with some talk about Robbie Robertson's claim that the road is an "impossible way of life" and how the joy of the musicians seems to undermine that statement.
