The mesmerizing, heart-tugging concert film Heart of Gold confirms Neil Young's stature as a national treasure.Full Review
It's hard to film icons like Young as anything BUT icons, but Demme's film gets past the legend, zooming in on Young's aged, heroic face and finding an artist as human as the rest of us.Full Review
The concert film has never looked or sounded classier than Jonathan Demme's superbly crafted Neil Young: Heart of Gold.Full Review
It's the record of a life, a musical and spiritual autobiography, and as directed by Jonathan Demme it taps into the kind of unashamed, unsentimental emotion that's become increasingly rare in films of any kind.Full Review
In one sense, Neil Young: Heart of Gold is just a simple concert film -- no cutaways during the music for interviews, no cameras swooping and soaring on giant booms. But simplicity in this case also means no barrier between us and the people on stage, as they sing some of the most soul-stirring pop songs I've seen performed in a very long time.Full Review
