The Most Intimate Look Into Tegan and Sara To Date
I am writing this review upon just finishing watching the credits roll. If you are even a moderate fan of Tegan and Sara, this 2 hr, 3 part documentary is well worth the investment.
There is high replay-ability in the separated chapters of the live show, so you can go back to individual songs, when you yearn for them. SuperClose (the production team) did an outstanding job of making the documentary as artful as the artists which it focused on.
I can honestly say, in many years of watching concerts, this was the most intimate, beautiful capturing I've ever witnessed. The synchronized harmony that the sisters produced, without the wired in electric sound they make on record, truly showed how beautifully they sing.
Standout moments include: standing in a soccer field, in BFE India, singing "On Directing" with nothing more than a guitar and a shaker, Sara's re-invented take on "Not With You", Tegan climbing a rooftop, to sing a very harmonious version of "Hell", and the overall impressiveness of lighting/camera work throughout the journey.
$12.99 for 2 hours of what I just mentioned above is a bargain. These girls are 2 of the most talented musicians in the industry today, and they just keep getting better. I can't wait for their new album, in 2012. I'll be watching/listening to this until then.
