While it's no new thing for rock bands to come out with their own movies, they've definitely gotten more dramatic. Two films (that couldn't be on more opposite ends of the cinematic concert-film spectrum, if you ask us) are showing in the next two weeks: Sigur Rós' Heima (Icelandic for "Home" or "Homeland") and Daft Punk's Electroma. While Heima is more your traditional rockumentary (see band play. See band play in nice locations.), Electroma is about (according to imdb) "the history of two robots, the members of Daft Punk, on their quest to become human." Well then.

Heima is worth seeing if you are into the unusual and heroin-y sounds of Sigur Rós, or have ever had the urge to go to Iceland. The beautiful cinematography of the movie definitely makes you feel like you're there. (Well, we can only assume that a Rós score is piped into terrain of Iceland, of course.) Tonight, free with RSVP at Mezzanine, you can catch Heima while drinking a few beers and dancing interpretively to Sigur Rós. (Actually, we're kidding. Please don't do that. Interpretive dance, that is.)

Daft Punk's Electroma also gets the rock n' roll treatment, but instead of being shown at a music venue, it's being screened at midnight on November 30 at the Clay Theater. And while we haven't really kept up with Daft Punk since the addictive "Around the World" song came out from them, we're guessing that the movie would probably be fun to watch. We're excited to see exactly how (wait for it…) Kubrick-esque, the movie is, judging from the trailer. -- Dianne de Guzman
