If you loved The Last Waltz, try Shine a Light

A bridge between a film you've already seen and one most people haven't. Here's what they share, and what the second one does that the first one doesn't.

What they share

Both films are directed by Martin Scorsese, and they sit in Documentary / Music territory. If that's the register that drew you to The Last Waltz, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Shine a Light is

Stop Making Sense if the band was The Rolling Stones. Cameras capture the band's two-night stand at the Beacon Theatre in 2006. Scorsese's lens finds the sweet spot between performance and legacy.
