I just love this. Scorsese’s camera moves - the way he swoops in behind Mavis and then slowly comes back around her as she starts to soar. The way he lights up Danko for the start of his solo bit. It’s just a beautifully put together document of a great performance. It was shot separately on a soundstage, making it essentially an early music video, and a great one at that. That Robertson and Scorsese were still working together right to the end just makes it all the more poignant and wondrous.

In Once Were Brothers Scorcese tells how he planned out the shooting for the whole concert. One thing you might not pick up on: there are NO shots of the audience at all.
