Overview

Interwoven throughout the Bad Seeds’ filmed performance of the new album are interviews and footage shot by Dominik. The result is stark, fragile and raw, and a true testament to an artist trying to find his way through the darkness.

• Review

  The stylist of The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford(2007) and Killing Me Softly(2002), Andrew Dominik´s One More Time With Feeling follows the avant-guard rock band Nick Cave & the Bad Seed’s sixteenth studio album ´Skeleton Tree´’s recording process. In the beginning of the movie, Nick Cave states that he is losing his voice, and the audience is left with the question of why would a great musician say such thing. The death of Nick Cave’s fifteen years old son was the motivation behind starting the film; he had decided that he would need to create something out of the sorrow that he was experiencing. The 3D black-and-white film describes a man who is delusional with loss meanwhile the structure of the film is a lively montage. Hazy images contribute to the 3D film on a whole other level, together with Nick Cave’s voice, reminiscent of the cry of a wild animal. [JANG Byungwon]
