| User ReviewPrivate UIt's been a long time since I've seen someone keep it this real. |
| User ReviewBrian PA fantastic if short look at the Silver Jews tour of Israel . It''s not really about the music more about Dave Berman's newly found love of his Jewish faith. Very interesting and emotional. |
| User ReviewAndy MA rock documentary/travel log of the Silver Jews' first tour and the three days they spent in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem. Watching band leader David Berman, a man whose own Jewish faith was rejuvenated after years of drugs and alcohol, is the real treat. His reaction to the wailing wall is moving because it shows how far has come without ever telling us directly. |
| User ReviewLance DThis documentary follows the Silver Jew making his first ever band tour, years after their record releases. Does the band have a following? Yes. Does the movie having a following? I do not see it. It is a very interesting concept for a documentary but from listening to the director/producer, the lead singer David Berman is real private and gave only Michael Tully and his crew access to the band tour. I wish the documentary explored why their was a need to be so private and feature more music. The film only scratches the surface on an otherwise great dcoumentary topic. |
