Love can mean many things



Music video director Emmet Malloy's rock documentary, The White Stripes Under Great White Northern Lights, explores the unusual push/pull relationship between extrovert Jack White and introvert Meg White on their 10th anniversary 2007 Canadian tour.

From what I've seen, the cinematography is beautiful and the footage is intimate. Performance footage, backstage interviews, and vignettes portray the personal relationship of a divorced rock couple who once claimed to be siblings.

The film opened at the 2009 Toronto Film Festival and is scheduled to be released as a box-set with an accompanying live album on March 16, 2010.

Are they lovers? Are they friends? Or are they siblings? Love can mean many things. I think that's what this rockumentary is all about.
