A documentary 'about' Leonard Cohen, not by him
7 January 2014
A must for those who want to know more about the man, his personality and his early work.

His poetry, read by himself is something you cant get from a book; something of a revelation. The laughter is an unexpected discovery, Cohen as a stand up comic is unexpected, as is the fact that he lived in Greece for some years.

Someone called this DVD "pretentious". A complete irrelevancy, as pretentiousness is by definition, self promotion, which cant happen in a documentary by another.

There is one special feature, a performance of I'm Your Man, with an animated background.

A must for those who are genuinely interested in,_ Leonard Cohen, the Man, the Artist
