Year of the Horse Reviews

I wonder how I ended up watching this flick but, in fact, I think I saw it in the movie theater when it was released. Indeed, I really loved ‘Dead Man’, it is actually one of my all-time favorites and it had a huge impact on me when I saw it at the time. From the moment I saw this flick, I became an instant fan of Jim Jarmusch and, by now, I have seen most of his movies (I’m just missing the last two, ‘Only Lovers Left Alive’ and ’The Limits of Control’). Anyway, the one thing I loved about ‘Dead Man’ is the soundtrack which is definitely one of the very best soundtracks I have ever heard and it has been haunting me ever since (as a matter of fact, I have even bought the soundtrack, the only one I have ever bought). So, when I heard that Jim Jarmusch was directing a documentary about Neil Young, the guy responsible for ‘Dead Man’ amazing soundtrack, of course, I had to watch it at some point. Eventually, it was a decent watch but I can’t say I was really blown away by the whole thing . The point is that, to be honest, like most of the old rockers, Neil Young is not really producing his best music right now or at the time when this documentary was made, at least, that’s my opinion, and therefore this feature was slightly disappointing. Still, to conclude, even though it is nothing really great, it is still worth a look, especially if you are interested in Neil Young.
