This Last Waltz shines!!! - 5 out of 5 (5/9/2002)
This IS the best this film has looked since it was released in 1978 - WOW! If you've been waiting to get your hands on this DVD you will be very happy for the wait. The Last Waltz glistens visually and the 5.1 DD soundtrack is clear and powerful (you can finally actually hear the lyrics - no easy feat for any Rock event). Excellent!!!
