So, 'Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark: Crush - The Movie' is a fascinating dive into the world of OMD during the mid-80s. It's not just a series of music videos, though it does feature some interesting promo pieces. The film gives you this raw, almost intimate look at the band as they navigate recording their sixth album. There’s this vibrant contrast throughout, from the eclectic Japanese adverts to the heavy atmosphere of Mexican death festivals. The pacing can be a bit uneven, but it's kind of part of its charm. Interviews with the band offer really personal insights, revealing their creative process, which is distinctively engaging. Overall, it's a unique time capsule of a band experimenting with sound and identity amidst a shifting musical landscape.
