Watch: The Last Waltz 1978 123movies, Full Movie Online – Thanksgiving, 1976, San Francisco’s Winterland: the Band performs its last concert after 16 years on the road. Some numbers they do alone, some songs include guest artists from Ronnie Hawkins (their first boss, when they were the Hawks) to Bob Dylan (their last, when as his backup and as a solo group, they came into their own). Scorsese’s camera explores the interactions onstage in the making of music. Offstage, he interviews the Band’s five members, focusing on the nature of life on the road. The friendships, the harmonies, the hijinks, and the wear and tear add up to a last waltz..
Plot: Martin Scorsese’s documentary intertwines footage from “The Band’s” incredible farewell tour with probing backstage interviews and featured performances by Eric Clapton, Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Van Morrison, and other rock legends.

One of the better concert films
You of course have to like the music to enjoy the film. Not just The Band, but Bob Dylan, Dr. John, Neil Young, Joni Mitchell, Eric Clapton, and more. But if you do enjoy this type of Seventies rock/blues this is one of the better concert films I’ve seen. Of course Martin Scorsese probably has a lot to do with that. Apparently the filming was well-planned with a full crew, not just pointing a camera at the stage and letting it run. That can work well, too, sometimes, but this was masterfully done. Particularly interesting was Levon Helm, singing the songs he wrote while playing drums. While it was sad that The Band was breaking up, most Sixties and Seventies rock band that have kept on plugging, are not at all good anymore. Stones and The Who, I’m looking at you.
