Pearl Jam: Single Video Theory Trailers

This video is not your typical collection of music videos. Rather than being simply a straightforward presentation of videos, SINGLE VIDEO THEORY also contains footage of the band members recording their album in the studio. The camera captures the actual recording sessions as well as the band members chatting candidly about their concept and ideas for the music. Directed by Mark Pellington and shot in 16mm over 3 days in 1997.

The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

this is a great video.but it hurts that it's so short, because I can't get enough of pearl jam:) anyways I would make it a bit differently: I would divide every song as one chapter with comments from the bands on how it was recording it, how it was written etc.I think that there should be some extras.but we can't complain because it's a great insight on how great musicians work and how masterpieces are created.It also shows that they are as usual people as anyone of us:they argue, they are bored, laugh and prank each other.as I watched I noticed that the atmosphere in their studio was similar as when I record with my band:) it's a must have for any PJ fan but also for a any music fan.If you want to see the magic of creating music

It was what they are really like how they make their music. I liked it and it made me laugh at some points also. When Eddie say that basically he had a bad attitude then takes it back and says it was all Jeff's fault. Very funny and make them more human then most bands out today.

If you like Pearl Jam you can't afford to miss this...Beautiful, wonderful, truly an exellent portrait of Pearl Jam. The interviews with Vedder are in particular great, he seems different than in other interviews I have seen. You can feel some kind of harmony surrounding the band.Filmed with Love.

A really interesting film that allows you to see a band creating and working on music. Watch as Pearl Jam get ready for their 1998 tour by practicing out some new material. Great interviews with the band members allows for some personal moments. See how a great band fights and work through their difficulties. Directed by Mark Pellington, who did their video for "Jeremy" and the director of the film "Arlington Road." Put this one in your collection.
