Take it down a notch
not that guy but just to read about it it was a cultural event. you get the Big Suit, it's directed by Demme, and is a celebrated rockumentary. I would like to see it sometime.
I would also like to re-watch "The Kids are Alright" at some point. I think at one point Keith Moon is in a hood and getting flogged by a dominatrix, kek
Well fuck me, I would also like to see the video version of Underworld's "Everything Everything", which used to be my favorite live album before Daft Punk's Alive 2007 unseated it.
Now, Daft Punk played it so that there was never an official "film" version of their famous touring concert. It was experienced as-it-happened, by those who never went to the concert itself, as a bunch of youtube videos. I knew they were back when I was watching those, and I got obsessed. So, those various youtube videos are "my favorite concert movie".
Link to best examples of Daft Punk live?
Link related is a good representative example of what the ~2006-7 vintage "Alive 2007" fan-generated videos felt like, at the time. Some of them seme to have been removed, but I know that a few dedicated users split the concert up into 10-11 segments, back when yt had lower time capability. Meh-quality, but clearly carefully made by fans, and it approximates the experience, which is the point. "You weren't there!"

There is also a historical context to this, for real fans (I regard myself as one): Homework remains their best album, IMO. And Discovery was a great pop album, and even Human After All had some nice vamps... but it felt lacking. Steam machine didn't seem to make sense. It was filler.
But this set. Good christ, this fucking set. It takes all the previously-annoying stuff and /reifies it, makes it better/ through association with the rest of the tracks/. Imagine being a fan of a musical group and you kind of feel like they fell off, and then they come back with this great medley set and light show. That's what Daft Punk did here. The whole thing mashes up just perfick, and even a Steam Machine, which used to annoy, now has better context as a transition.
Speaking of famous rockumentaries and live albums, Frampton comes alive is mentioned in connection with Daft Punk by means of the vocoder. Thinking out loud in this thread, I'm getting ideas.
The review at Pitchfork honestly repeats views that I had personally developed, while watching the above YT videos, even before the live album itself (Alive 2007) was officially released, some months later. I basically completely agree with everything that is written in this particular review (apart from the score), and in this way, Alive 2007 became my favorite live album.

alternatively Slow Century, although that isn't so much a live film so much as it is a discography about Pavement

The best band documentary/concert film.
No Last Waltz? What's wrong with you Sup Forums?
One of the greatest bands to ever do it at their absolute peak, with guests like Joni Mitchell, Bob Dylan, Van Morrison and a coked up Neil Young. Directed by Scorsese, top notch top notch
