So, 'The Divine Miss M in Performance' is a curious piece, really. The DVD features the 1980s HBO Home Video release of 'Art Or Bust,' with a live recording of Bette Midler's 'De Tour' captured in Minneapolis back in '83. The atmosphere is vibrant, and you can feel the energy of the crowd, which adds a layer to her performance. Then there's the juxtaposition of footage from the Continental Baths in '71, giving you a sense of her evolution. The pacing is a bit all over the place, but that’s part of its charm—it's raw and unfiltered. The themes of self-expression and resilience come through strongly, and her performances are just packed with personality. It’s those little quirks that make it distinctive, honestly.
