Shane MacGowan – “If I Should Fall From the Grace of God” DVD A documentary on the man MacGowan, with the man’s blessing and participation. featuring nice little clips from various stages of his career, from his punk days (including bits from “The Punk Rock Movie”) to his days with the Pogues and afterwards, with thoughts and remembrances from friends, family, former bandmates, tour managers, and the man himself along the way, though seeing the state MacGowan currently seems to be in you have to wonder if this should have been subtitled “The Bottle and The Damage Done”. Bonuses include extended interviews with Shane as well as comrades Chevron and Cave and a sing-a-long with Shane. Sometimes there’s the need for subtitles a la “Trainspotting” and anyone looking for a full-length video collection will be disappointed, but overall this is pretty good, even if you end up wondering whether the Irish have heard of the term “intervention”.
