The Last Waltz
Directed by Martin Scorsese

Thursday, Jan. 21, 1 p.m.

More than just one of the greatest concert films ever made, Martin Scorsese conceived a new kind of music documentary. The Last Waltz captures the farewell performance of the legendary group the Band at San Francisco’s Winterland Ballroom on Thanksgiving, 1976. Scorsese created an immersive experience that brings viewers onstage and inside the music itself. That music—as performed by the Band and a host of other generation-defining artists, including Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, the Staple Singers, Muddy Waters, and Neil Young—lives on as an almost religious expression of the transcendent possibilities of rock and roll.

Rated PG. Runtime: 1 hour and 57 minutes.
