A pre-screening conversation moderated by Ben Fong-Torres will feature cinematographer and onstage cameraman for the film crew Hiro Narita, music critic and journalist Joel Selvin, and The Last Waltz producer and former tour manager for The Band Jonathan Taplin. On Thanksgiving Day in 1976, The Band took the stage alongside an extraordinary lineup of music icons, including Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell, Muddy Waters, Neil Young, Eric Clapton, Van Morrison, and Emmylou Harris, for what would become one of rock's most celebrated farewell concerts. Through a blend of live performances and candid conversations, Scorsese transforms the event into a deeply cinematic reflection on The Band's legacy and the evolution of rock and roll. Released in 1978, the same year Winterland closed its doors, The Last Waltz preserves the legacy of one of San Francisco's most legendary cultural landmarks while standing among the most influential music documentaries ever made.
