Additional InformationLeonard Cohen manages to garner fans from the unlikeliest of places despite his distinctly un-rock-&-roll appearance and a set of songs that veer closer to poetry than to their uneasy bedfellows in the pantheon of popular music. But viewers looking for an in-depth analysis of the man behind some of the most deeply introspective music ever recorded should look elsewhere: LEONARD COHEN - I'M YOUR MAN contains precious little insight from Cohen himself. Instead, director Lian Lunson has pieced together a warm tribute to the Canadian singer, drawing on the words of his many celebrity fans while also sharing generous amounts of footage from a Cohen tribute concert staged in 2005. The concert was filmed in Australia, with the bulk of the celebrity testimonials coming from performers at the show. The eclectic array of artists taking part include Nick Cave, Pulp's Jarvis Cocker, Martha and Rufus Wainwright, and folk legend Linda Thompson, all of whom perform unique interpretations of Cohen-penned classics such as æI'm Your ManÆ (Cave) and æChelsea Hotel #2Æ (Rufus Wainwright). Lunson intersperses the concert footage with interviews from the stars, the most vocal and effusive praise coming from U2Æs The Edge and Bono, who are seen backing Cohen on a rendition of æTower of SongÆ as the movie closes. Cohen himself is also given some screen time in which he muses on a number of interesting topics, but Lunson's piece is mostly designed as a straight tribute to a man who has never sat easily in the contemporary music world, much to the delight of his fans.

  • Beautiful man, awesome experiences, mind blowing.

    I bought this having seen the production on television. I was just hoping to free up space on my top box. I was pleasantly surprised to find the "extras" on this DVD. A couple of songs were performed that didn't make it onto the final edition. Perhaps there was not enough time or space. There is also a conversation with Leonard that shows his humility and honest interpretation of his behaviour. This is a wonderful chance to look behind the curtain. To meet the man, exposed, honest and true. It also has some beautiful, poignant moments, both in the conversations and the musical performances. This DVD will provide many, many hours of pleasure from the singing and the songs. It will also give one hours of deep thinking and reflection. Enjoy.

  • Great music and emotive singing

    If you’re a Leonard Cohen fan this dvd is a must. Some of his best songs are sung by relatively unknown singers who are personal friends of Cohen and add a real emotional spin on many of the tunes alongside insights and interviews of the man himself. It’s a documentary and a musical about one of the ‘greats’ of the musical scene of the last 50 years.
