Here is the other newsflash for S&E - this was filmed a LONG time ago, not yesterday! It's not a newly released drama - it's a music documentary concerning the band at that time and particular set of songs for crying out loud. The're standards now, but they certainly weren't then!
I don't know, for people supposedly capable of reviewing art, they seemed completely unable to do so.
So I truly wonder where S&E's heads were at, to not understand the clip they used from RTSS?! Were they paying ANY attention? To me, they it seemed like they were so wound up trying to fit R&H into their pre-set movie review model they didn't actually experience the film as it is.
Edge sliding down a hill going weee!
i remember a headline from that era...i think it was "bono less than boffo at box office" - i can remember it since who the hell says boffo these days?
I disagree about the lighting of the concert scenes -- I think the film's single strongest point is the way the concert scenes, especially the black & white, are filmed.
i googled and it appears to be from rolling stoneOh my god, I think I have an old magazine with that headline

I thought it had always been a running joke with U2 fans that Bono's difficult to understand. Personally, I only found out that it isn't "Shamu the mysterious whale" or "I don't believe in panty hoses" last week!
