Duran Duran - Arena (An Absurd Notion) [2004] DVD9

In 1984, there was no bigger pop band than Duran Duran. They documented their first major US tour with a live album, a concert "movie" and a behind-the-scenes documentary. This DVD includes an hour-long sci-fi oriented movie of the concert and a 45 minute behind-the-scenes look at the production of the movie.
In the mid-1980s Duran Duran worked closely with HIGHLANDER director Russell Mulcahy on a series of extravagant music videos. The soaring budgets reflected the decadence of the times, and subsequently gained heavy rotation on MTV. The next natural step was for Mulcahy to capture the band on the road, and he did so in spectacular style with the concert film ARENA. Milo O'Shea, who played Professor Duran Duran in the 1968 film BARBARELLA. Shot in 1984, the live footage is taken from the performance in Oakland, and is interspersed with live action footage that neatly features actor. ARENA is a vital snapshot of the heady excesses of the 1980s, and is a fascinating insight into the lofty ambitions that many groups aspired to. Duran Duran are Simon Le Bon, Nick Rhodes, Andy Taylor, John Taylor, Roger Taylor.
