Movie Review: Neil Young - “Harvest Time”
As he speaks about the making of Harvest 50 years ago, Neil Young suddenly realizes he may have given away too much - seeing’s how moviegoers had just shelled out $15 to experience “Harvest Time” in theaters.
So he stopped talking, turned and walked back in to his ramshackle barn.
Taped specifically for the Dec. 1 and 4 movie house screenings, Young’s 2022 introduction serves to reinforce just how much time has passed since his shot-in-1971-but-never-released documentary went into the vault. The contemporary Young is a haggard septuagenarian - but one who still revels with the delight of the straggly, 20-something who stars in “Harvest Time.”
Filmmaking traversed the United States and Europe as Young records with the Stray Gators at his Broken Arrow Ranch in California and lays down “A Man Needs at Maid” and “There’s a World” on the London Symphony Orchestra’s home turf.
David Crosby and Stephen Stills travel to Broken Arrow to help with “Alabama;” Stills and Graham Nash join Young in New York to work on “Words (Between the Lines of Age).” In his intro, Young mentions James Taylor and Linda Ronstadt’s contributions to the sessions, but they do not appear.
The ranch hand who inspired “Old Man” is featured in a brief segment and gives his approval to the song. Young is now a couple of decades older than that man was at the time and many of the other people in the film - Ben Keith, Carrie Snodgress and Elliott Roberts among them - are now dead.
Back in ’71, daytime beers are consumed, joints and pipes are smoked and music pours out of Young, who lies in a field listening to playback echoing off the hills on his ranch as he struggles with celebrity and being, in his words, “a rich hippie.”
In London, Young plays a snippet of “Harvest” in a dressing room while discussing the symphony sessions with producer Glyn Johns. Back at home, a giggly Young, stoned out of his gourd and lying on his back, picks out a version of “Out on the Weekend” on banjo and plays “Journey through the Past” on piano. An in-concert performance of “Heart of Gold” leads into the closing credits.
Just before this scene, Young is in Nashville. He drops into a radio station to get some free, on-air promotion and tells the DJ he expects the film-in-progress to be released “maybe pretty soon.”
At its premiere 51 years later, “Harvest Time” looks its age and its age is what makes the amateurish “Harvest Time” work, for its vintage is its charm. That charm renders the shaky camera work, the overlong barn jams and stoned strolls through Broken Arrow worth the time. All of this said, the two-hour film could’ve easily been trimmed to 90 minutes with nothing being lost.
“Harvest Time” is also available in the just-released, 50th-anniversary Harvest boxset.

Almost 30 years ago, The Simpsons famously predicted that Cypress Hill would share the stage with the London Symphony Orchestra. Now, fast-forward to 2024 and it's finally coming to fruition.

The self-referentiality of "reaction" videos gets a pass from me today if it means hearing Robert Ziegler reply to some streamer clip: "No, you're absolutely right, that is a mandolin," in the tone of a stern but proud schoolteacher (who happens to have conducted the London Symphony Orchestra).
