The best music movies throughout history.
Pink Floyd - Live at Pompeii
Pink Floyd gathered in the amphitheater in the ruins of Pompeii in 1972 to film one of the greatest concert films and documentaries of a rock group of the psychedelic era. Set amid the ruins of the devastated ancient city, the camera slides up and down, panning left and right over the painted frescoes and grim mosaics that document the lives and loves of ancient people, providing a sort of glimpse into the fate of beings cut short through the sheer absurdity of catastrophic misfortune. Out of the mercurial swamp of the lave flow of Vesuvius, we have the stuff from which is born, from the burbling earth, a new and more magnificent ruin for which time will still have no pity, no mercy, or no remorse.

Sure Plays Mean Pinball
I've seen the Who's rock opera Tommy, directed outlandishly and lavishly by Ken Russell, so many times the movie is permanently recorded in my subconscious. Be that as it may, yesterday I rewatched it at four in the morning and was surprised that it didn't honk off the neighbors. You want to avoid that, pinball wizard or not.

Slave to the Grind
Watching Slave to the Grind, the Death/Grindcore doc that covers the genre from its roots in British hardcore punk to whatever the hell it is supposed to be today, I don't feel as if I learned anything more than that members of Carcass were also in Napalm Death (big surprise), and that Seth Putnam (a self-destructive mini-ogre who died in 2011 of a heart attack; making one to wonder if AxCx ever had a song called "You Died of a Heart Attack") was hated and generally derided as a hate-filled, pathetic, drunken, drug-addled bastard. (Another big, big surprise.)
Emotionally Resonant Love Story <3
On a train, a married man runs into his ex-lover. What follows is a succession of personal complications. Theera Kadhal is a film that explores the concept of rekindled love in an attempt to elicit emotions. While the premise is not novel, the film contains moments that transport us back to the people we miss in our lives. Those looking for a more thorough and nuanced study of the issue, on the other hand, may be disappointed.

Amadeus (Director's Cut)
"The chief aim of philosophy would be to divine for man, that most unfortunate bipedal beast, the means by which he may discover the inscrutable and capricious ways by which Divine Providence means to enact His will, and so navigate his course thereby, to avoid the thorns and brambles of misfortune." Marquis de Sade, Justine (1791)
Five Years Time - Some Noah and the Whale Songs
Introduction One of the things about my large CD collection is that I dip into it and rediscover great albums, songs and artists that had sort of slipped off my listening map.
