The Last Waltz

After 17 years of making music, feuding, touring and establishing themselves as one of history’s most beloved groups, The Band calls it quits with a final show, filmed at at San Francisco’s Winterland Ballroom on Nov. 25, 1976 by a young editor-turned-director, Martin Scorsese. Joining Levon Helm, Robbie Robertson, Rick Danko and Garth Hudson is a stream of legends: Bob Dylan, Van Morrison, Eric Clapton, Joni Mitchell and Muddy Waters, among others. The best music documentary of all time? You can decide. (U.S., 1978, 117m)
