Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds: One More Time with Feeling
director: Andrew Dominik actor: Nick Cave / Warren Ellis
other title: Nick Cave - One More Time With Feeling
Andrew Dominik's One More Time With Feeling is a remarkable black and white documentary which chronicles the creation of Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds' album Skeleton Tree. Originally a performance based concept, the film evolved into something much more significant as Dominik delved into the tragic backdrop of the writing and recording of the album. The result is stark, fragile and raw, and a true testament to an artist trying to find his way through the darkness. It documents the writing, recording and performing of Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds’ sixteenth studio album, Skeleton Tree.

This Much I Know to Be True
director: Andrew Dominik actor: Nick Cave / Warren Ellis
other title: 我知道这是真的 / Nick Cave - This Much I Know to Be True
Andrew Dominik’s career has been crossing paths with Nick Cave’s since 2000’s Chopper, which was scored by original Bad Seeds member Mick Harvey. Seven years later, Cave wrote the music for The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford, assisted by another bandmate, Warren Ellis. The next step in this decade-long friendship and partnership was the 2016 film One More Time with Feeling, in which Cave chose to present his album “Skeleton Tree”, having withdrawn from all promotional tours and interviews after his son’s death. In 2021, Cave once again found himself unable to perform live on stage, only this time he shared his predicament with musicians everywhere who were also obliged to give up audience contact on account of the pandemic. And so, for the second time, cinema becomes the preferred means of breaking the vocal and instrumental silence. Besides snippets of conversations and musings between the musicians and the director, Dominik’s enveloping cameras capture an intense studio session with Cave and Ellis (with a Marianne Faithfull cameo) featuring piano and string-dominated tracks from the latest albums, 2019’s “Ghosteen” and 2021’s “Carnage”.
