U2: The Unforgettable Fire
Somehow, strangely, I had never heard this album until a few months ago. And I'm a big fan of the band. Of course it's a little more 80s than No Line, but if you can get past that, this is a magnificent album. Bono's wordplay adds texture to music that's already electrified and taken with American culture (Elvis, MLK and the 4th of July surface more than once). Highlights: "Pride", "Bad", "MLK" (****)

Just a little anecdote: my oldest sister took our Gramma Gertrude along with her kids to see this movie. Gramma, who is 91, enjoyed herself, though she was confused by all of the pre-show commercials and previews, and said that a young Elizabeth Taylor starred in the last movie she saw in the theatre.
