The Velvet Underground (Doc) - Featured Film of Interest - Highly Recommended

Todd Haynes creates an artistic homage/documentary hybrid that challenges the genre, easily could have gone off the rails, but instead hits on every note.  Quite appropriate.  I think Mekas and the gang would approve.  As a long time invested fan of the band, I couldn't be more appreciative that this material fell into responsible hands and that this gritty, beautiful, beat film is the result.
