I usually do not rate movies 10 out of 10 'cause there's always something missing for me. But this time, it's perfect! I knew this album would be about Nick's beloved son but I didn't know how much his death would affect him.

I knew this album would be about Nick's beloved son but I didn't know how much his death would affect him. He's telling us that the old him is gone. That the narrative side of his songs is gone. And then the music appears- Jesus Alone, Girl in Amber, Magnet sound terrific! The black & white cinematography, special effects, narration- they all together create a very genuine and intimate story 'bout grief and dealing with a loss. A Suberb piece of cinema!… Expand

An amazing document of human suffering and loss. Nick Cave exposes himself, prostrated to an audience of strangers. It is engaging, uncomfortable, and cathartic.

It was hard to know what to expect from this film--would it play as a sequel to "20,000 Days On Earth"? Would it appear like a narrative, the album in visual from start to finish? It's a bit of both, and more... deeply moving, haunting, andIt was hard to know what to expect from this film--would it play as a sequel to "20,000 Days On Earth"? Would it appear like a narrative, the album in visual from start to finish? It's a bit of both, and more... deeply moving, haunting, and beautifully affecting in its portraiture of the artists on which it focuses, "One More Time With Feeling" does precisely what it sets out to do: renders a thousand interviews and questions moot, and gives the world as much insight as Cave and his wife are willing to share--and that, it turns out, is perhaps a mercy to us, for what they do say is staggering in its honesty. We could talk about aesthetics (the film is gorgeous, the black-and-white 3-D experience hypnotizes and lends weight and immediacy to the interview portions--and makes the musical performances soar) but at core this is a document of process and people, who are also very much in process themselves. How rare, and how rich for us, the fans and listeners, to have such access to these amazing folks, even in their sorrow. A friend and I braved torrential rains and flashing skies, arriving at the theater thoroughly soaked--yet the experience was well worth it, and I know I will be revisiting Cave's words (and this director's vision) for a long time. I heard a rumor there were extra showings being planned in the following days, and I hope it's true--should the opportunity arise, I strongly recommend viewing this film in its intended format. At the very least, the music is there for us all.… Expand

"I am god, thinking of god, thinking of Steve McQueen."

It's been awhile for a documentary that left me breathless, speechless and having tears in my eyes. His voice talking about his art through poetry, which is a deep look into the"I am god, thinking of god, thinking of Steve McQueen."

It's been awhile for a documentary that left me breathless, speechless and having tears in my eyes. His voice talking about his art through poetry, which is a deep look into the creative genius of Nick Cave. But you can also hear his pain.

Visually stunning with beautiful and haunting imagery that planted itself into my brain. A true portrait of grief.

You only have to see this once for it to stay with you.… Expand
