Here's another NFB gem from the 60s.

Here's another NFB gem from the 60s. It's about a young Leonard Cohen, and also gives a great glimpse into Montreal and its beatnik scene at the time. The narration and cinematography are very much of their time and a have a lost beauty as a result.

    I did like seeing the shots of the city on this one too. However, with no captioning I can not say much more about it.

    Have you ever heard kd lang singing his song, Hallelujah? Oh my God. I saw her do it live once and I forgot to breathe. She got a standing ovation.
