Film: Songs from the Life of Leonard Cohen
Year: 1988
Genre: Documentary/Music
Description: Songs from the Life of Leonard Cohen. BBC Omnibus 1988. More a biographical documentary than a concert, the 70-minute program combines live performances--some complete, many abridged--mainly from Cohen's 1988 show at Carnegie Hall, in support of his then-current album, I'm Your Man, with interviews with Cohen himself, his original musical patron Judy Collins and protege Jennifer Warnes. There's also fascinating film footage of Cohen as a young poet in the '60s, and, back again in 1988, revisiting old haunts such as New York's Chelsea Hotel, where he met Janis Joplin, and the Greek island of Hydra, where he wrote such classics as Bird on a Wire and met the love of his life and inspiration of his classic So Long, Marianne.
