This time around, the director documents a 2011 Young solo show in Toronto (the musician's birthplace), but in an intentionally fractured way. Read full review

It certainly stays alive in this spare and intriguing film directed by Jonathan Demme, who has helmed two previous Young concert films. Read full review

Journeys, shot on the last two nights of Young's 2011 solo world tour, is essential Neil Young. Read full review

One of the worst movies ever. 20 minutes of Neil's chin hair with spit on the camera lens. Buy the soundtrack. Great confidence booster for student film makers.

Neil Young as Norma Desmond ?? How does it go…..“…..all you wonderful people out there in the dark”….and ......“mercifully the fantasy now engulfed her”….. Megalomania seems to have taken over a terrific musician and song writer who now appears more inclined to guru-hood and a “fire walkNeil Young as Norma Desmond ??
