Across the Water

About This Movie

So, 'Across the Water' dives into the 1976 Neil Young & Crazy Horse tour, capturing that raw, unfiltered vibe. It's not just a concert film; it weaves in the moments that made those performances resonate. You can really feel the atmosphere of the venues in Japan and Europe, like you're right there with the crowd. The pacing feels deliberate, with those quieter introspective moments that contrast nicely with the explosive musical highs. It’s fascinating to see how the band interacts with the local culture, almost like a dialogue between them and the audience. The way the documentary uses archival footage is really compelling too, giving richness to the narrative. Overall, it's a solid exploration of an essential period in rock history.
