Year of the Horse

Indie director Jim Jarmusch lenses a low-tech tribute to protean rocker Neil Young and his long-standing band, Crazy Horse. Stitched together from archival material shot in 1976 and 1986 along with candid scenes of Young and the band kicking back between shows, this rockumentary is as ragged as it is direct.

Top Critics Reviews

If you've ever liked the 52-year-old Young's songs, you'll probably be hooked early on.

Both a quirky little movie and a monument to one of rock 'n' roll's greatest noisemakers.

This is quite possibly the worst documentary I have ever had the displeasure of watching on the big screen.

rotten:
Plays like This Is Spinal Tap made from anti-matter. Both films are about aging rockers, but Year of the Horse removes the humor and energy.

fresh:
This is an intimate, lyrical yet incendiary film, and it will please fans of both Young and Jarmusch.
