David Gilmour in Concert (2002)
do yourself a favor, buy it, turn up your speaker system, immerse yourself.
do yourself a favor, buy it, turn up your speaker system, let there be silence, and immerse yourself in. i have watched it several times already, it still gives me thrills. video, audio, editing is superb. the atmosphere of this concert, audience - as on almost all PF concerts - is intimately expecting and quiet throughout the performances just to burst into ovation and applause. There's really no point in describing it, go see the raving reviews on the Amazon site. Additional materials on this DVD, are as well superb and will leave you on the edge. That is, if you're the Floyd fan. Which you will become after experiencing this.
Mój Nikifor (2004)
the angle this film has to be viewed from
Nikifor was given birth in the stables, by his deaf and mute mother. He had a twin sister, which later has frozen to death. Local Nikifor has inherited his mother's disability by having his tongue-tied to a palate (ankyloglossia), which made him unable to articulate and produce understandable speech, and was partially deaf. He was also illiterate. Various people have given him shelter, he had no birth certificate. From a legal point of view... he simply did not exist. He was raised and lived in an isolation from society, it's standards, and people, who poked fun at a miserable creature. Screen writer, Joanna Kos, in an interview in Gazeta Wyborcza admitted that film should be viewed as a study on humanity, and likened the story to this of an Elijah prophet.
