If I last another 20 years, I'm confident this film will make the Journey with me. The visuals are completely stunning and reinforce the bands stature already perfectly presented by just enough short of perfect performance. There is not a single scene in the whole film that would benefit from a different point of view, lighting setup or depth of field (except perhaps the Bono scene 31 minutes in where he tries his hand at graffiti backed by watchtower, personally I'd have made that blurred I think). If that isn't enough, the photography is stunning. The Edge soars, Larry beats perfect time, while Adam holds everything together. Bono sounds amazing, much better than I ever saw him. I love this film because it presents the band a their absolute peak. Better they had split and then reformed once whatever itch was out of their system, I think. Instead they went off and regrouped into their post Achtung baby period. Why is it I love this film when the music press and the band itself seem to dis this film? I once read an article that suggested the band almost split after the release of the film.

Today, I took delivery of my iPod Touch, and, sad bastard that I am, Rattle and Hum is the first movie I'm watching on it.

And when I got my first portable video player, well Rattle & h Hum was the first DVD I ripped so I could play it on that (although Pink Floyds pulse had become it's constant companion too). Naturally when DVD came along I had to have the quality offered by that too. When I discovered the concept of digital movies, it was the first tape I digitised so I could watch it on my computer, and when video CD came along, I bought that too because the quality was much better than my amateur 'rip'. It became one of a small handful of VHS music videos that I made the effort to take with me as I moved through life. But after seeing Rattle and Hum I was almost literally breathless. Joshua tree was one of my favourite CDs, but despite being a frequent listener of the earlier stuff, I'd remained unhooked. When I first watched it I was a half U2 fan, a U1 if you will. At the time of writing, this film is almost 20 years old.
