Yeah, I thought the closing credits were BRILLIANT!
How much fun was it to watch the whole guitar team on those last couple of songs? Peg, Emmylou, and all the others backing Neil and genuinely having fun with a great man and his great music.
It was also amazing to hear why he wrote Old Man, about singing for his daddy, and watching him throw down on guitar, harp, banjo, AND piano. The guy is a pure music treasure.
The movie is definitely a must-have when the DVD comes out next month.

totally agree! it was fun and those stories were amazing.
That was an amazing movie! The theater was full when I saw it in Philly, and like Rhinomagic and Mookie said, his stories about why he wrote them, and his glance at Peggy during Harvest Moon really got to me.
I've never been in a movie theater where everyone sat quiet and enthralled for the closing credits! Not a dry eye in the house!
When we were all walking out, I asked the girl at the ticket booth if people came out with tears in their eyes every showing, and she said yup! She said she cried everytime she watched it, too!
When Jonathan Demme makes a music film,,,, I DEFINITELY go for it!
Stop Making Sense, Last Waltz and Neil,,, you just can't go wrong!
I watched the extra's on disc two tonight damn there was a lot of stuff on there. It was pretty cool. I'm gonna sit down and watch the concert tomorrow again.
