Movie Reviews of Brian Wilson presents SMiLE
Movie Review: Beautiful SMiLE...
Summary: 5 Stars
'Brian Wilson Presents SMiLE' is a wonderful companion to have along with the 'SMiLE' album itself. The DVD package contains two discs. Disc one contains the feature length documentary 'Beautiful Dreamer' and disc two contains the live concert of SMiLE.
'Beautiful Dreamer' is an amazing documentary. The movie does a great job of detailing Brian's life during the SMiLE era. It gives great insight into all the work that went into the project (both in the 60s and in 2004). It features interviews with Brian's friends/family, fellow musicians, fellow lyricists. The movie is full of footage and pictures from the early Beach Boy days. The documentary does not go into great detail about certain issues (it doesn't even mention Brian's relations with Gene Landy)...However, I can understand this because the movie is basically about the 'SMiLE' album (it is not a documentary on Brian's entire life).
The live concert of 'SMiLE' is wonderful. The audio quality is excellent and the video quality is top notch. ...between the lights/projections, on-stage theatrics, and the camera work, the concert was very fun to watch.
The DVD package is quite pricey, but definitely worth it.
5/5
