  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:


DVD Picture:
The anamorphically enhanced 1.78:1 DVD reveals Neil Young beneath a single spotlight and surrounded by a few candles. The dimly lit picture creates a lonely ambience, almost giving the impression that the viewer is at a private performance. The imagery is soft, appearing slightly smeared. Detail is often lacking. There is evidence of pixelization and aliasing problems, but the acoustic Neil Young performance makes up for what the picture lacks in quality. Includes a selectable menu option for 16:9 widescreen and 4:3 widescreen playback. (Suzanne Hodges)
