DVD Reviews of Michael Flatley - Gold
DVD Review: An Excellent Addition to Your Collection
Summary: 5 Stars
I must disclose that I am a bit of an overeager fan of Irish Dancing at least in the form of Lord of the Dance, Feet of Flames, and Riverdance. I have seen all of the shows several times and had the fortune of going backstage after a Lord of the Dance performance to meet a few of the dancers (who were quite friendly and generous with their time). And, I listen to the music as I work out. I have all of the shows on DVD and video and to this day watch them almost daily. As such, I was very happy when I learned of this new DVD title, Gold. Michael Flatley cerainly is not shy and is known for his "confidence," but this new DVD is extremely entertaining. I do not necessarily buy the sometimes manufactured sounding humility in this production and his "accent" seems to vary depending upon his audience, but we overlook the shortcomings in those we admire, right?
The DVD contains highlights from the original Riverdance show and Michael Flatley's two shows including dance peformances of Feet of Flames in Budapest.
The DVD is arranged in a long interview format interspersed with performances in a chronological order. Included are clips from his days with the Chieftans, dancing at the Kennedy Center, performing at Eurovision, Riverdance, Lord of the Dance, Feet of Flames, and rehearsals for what may be an upcoming movie/video. The Budapest Feet of Flames performances contain short interviews with some of the dancers. The DVD is arranged in a home moview/documentary format begining with pictures of Michael Flatley's family and childhood all the way through and including performances and photographs from the present.
There also is a very interesting "making of" Feet of Flames which is included as well. One really can get a sense of what it was like making the "one off" show. In addition, you get to meet a number of the dancers.
Certainly this DVD will entertain and delight the loyal fan base, but it is extremely well done, and as with the other DVDs and videos, it can be watched repeatedly. I do not know how long the Irish Dancing craze will last, but I get the feeling its twilight may be near. Any additional worthy videos and performances, therefore, are treasured.
You will enjoy this one for years to come.
