Eclipse Series 29: Aki Kaurismaki's Leningrad Cowboys Reviews

If you thought Spinal Tap was an eccentric rock band, wait until you lay eyes on the Leningrad Cowboys. Created by director Aki Kaurismäki for a series of music videos, the fictional rock band with the exaggerated pompadour mullet hairstyles and pointed clown shoes gained an enthusiastic following which led to two farcical music-based films and a legitimate rock concert. In this latest Eclipse release, all three of the Leningrad Cowboys movies are collected in one package along with the five music videos attributed to the band. As films, the comedy is hit and miss (mostly miss in the second film), but the music is the salvation of the fictional films, and the concert is very entertaining indeed.
