Monterrey Pop, especially that Criterion Collection edition, is just wonderful.

For an actual non-concert film, though, Metallica's "Some Kind of Monster" is one of the strangest, most fascinating honest protrayals of a band you'll ever see.
 
Concert films are fine, but please limit them to films, not videotape, preferably those that have had a theatrical release.

Ferry Across the Mersey. You know, Gerry and the Pacemakers. I think I saw this in a theater when I was a kid. Am I hallucinating?
I seem to recall I also saw a Sonny and Cher movie too at the same time.
 
You didn't dream it. There was such a movie by Geriatric and the Pacemakers.
