I loved the old footage, and the interviews with various musicians that crossed paths with The Band. I will say that this was definitely more of a Robbie Robertson documentary versus a straight The Band documentary. I feel like they kind of glossed over a lot leading up to the Last Waltz, and didn't discuss the lives of the members after the breakup. Overall, it was nice to hear the old tunes.

[KIFF] A one-way version of the story of The Band. A movie made to embrace the memories of Robbie Robertson. Produced by his friends Martin Scorsese and Ron Howard, with friends interviewed, it is like betrayal to a group's controversial memory. The documentary has good editing and access to endless footage, but the absence of Garth Hudson, the other member of the band alive, is significant.
