DVD Reviews of Prince - Diamonds and Pearls

DVD Review: The Document Of Prince & The NPG
Summary: 4 Stars

It seems like no accident that this video anthology came out roughly around the same time as Michael Jackson - Dangerous: The Short Films. And interestingly enough the presentation follows a similar pattern: manipulating and being manipulated by the media (as told through a montage of TV news clippings) and Prince videos from this era being strung together with vingettes of Prince running from the press. Well happily I have to inform you that's where the cons of this DVD ends. Whereas I always had the impression MJ was,in his own mind being dead serious in his paranoia on his DVD if you watch this carefully there's a strong hint of swaggering self parody here. This presentation also follows a loose concept involving two ladies named Diamond and Pearl,who appear aside Prince on the Diamonds and Pearls album cover. Prince's wit and invisable humor is very much on display especially in one vignette before the "Cream" video involving a woman carrying on a conversat ion with a man that,"I don't like Sinatra;I like Prince"-or something to that effect. Prince makes it clear he's very self possessed when it comes to how his ego comes across and especially in the "Gett Off" video he has his mysterious,controlling pseudo gigalo routine down to a science. Not to say he's coming at it from the same standpoint as he did in Purple Rain; he's ego is not that of the same insecure "kid" with a pretention of cockiness but a very cocksure 30 something who knows what he wants and how to get it. Prince also has a very sensative side and happily it seems that side of his personality is very genuine,if not as exciting as the elegant looking player character he'd worked so hard had creating. That comes into the forefront on the video for the title track finding Prince and Rosie Gaines singing to a room of multi racial children,sort of in the persona of guardian angels. Even though MTV's butchered version of Spike Lee's original video of "Money Don't Matter 2 Night" is the one presented here the B&W inner city and gulf war era news report imagry does hint at the more pointed commentary of the original censored version. Since the NPG were in the process of making their own album at this point a video for their own song "Call The Law" is included. There's also a video to the wispy "Strollin" starring the Diamond and Pearl character again along with some vital live footage of Prince from his Diamonds And Pearls tour. In terms of commercial and creative reinvention during 1991 it's true that MJ and Prince were back in tandem. The main difference,illustrated so well here was that while MJ's future wasn't 100% certain Prince made it clear it was only the beginning for him and he'd have a lot more surprises to come.
