The best concert documentary of all time? Maybe. Some of the most beautifully orchestrated complicated camera moves I've seen pulled off in a documentary, apparently Scorsese storyboarded the whole set out.

I want to see The Muppet Movie now, but mostly just so I can hear Rainbow Connection again, the songs were my favorite part of this film

"Joker" is good, not great
