The Tragically Hip - Long Time Running

About This Movie

So, 'Long Time Running' is an intense watch. It’s a documentary, yes, but it feels like a slow burn. You get drawn into The Tragically Hip's world during their final tour, and it’s heavy. The film captures the emotional nuances of the band’s journey, especially with Gord Downie's health hanging in the balance. You really feel the weight of every performance, like each song is a farewell. The pacing meanders, but in a way that lets you soak in the atmosphere. There's a rawness in the behind-the-scenes moments, the camaraderie, and even the struggles. It’s a genuine tribute, not just to the music, but to the connection between the band and their fans.
