Tom Waits: Big Time
8.0
“The concert was "the best live performance of the year." The movie is BIG TIME.”
Bringing his unique sense of humor to this bizarre and original piece of moviemaking, Tom Waits takes the audience through a musical journey with his jazzy, quirky, bluesy tunes presented as you would never, ever, ever expect.
