Beastie Boys: Video Anthology

The Beastie Boys are among the most influential groups of the last two decades. As their music has opened hip-hop to a wider audience and changed the parameters of its sound, their ambitious music videos have carried the medium to new levels of artistic expression. This groundbreaking two-disc anthology showcases eighteen videos containing alternate visual angles and multiple audio tracks. Loaded with never-before-seen footage and unreleased music tracks, this special edition also contains a trove of rare still photos and exclusive audio commentary by the band and the video directors.

Directed by David Perez Shadi, Adam Bernstein, Evan Bernard, Tamra Davis, Spike Jonze, Adam Yauch, Ari Marcopoulos, Beastie Boys: Video Anthology leans on a strong ensemble — Michael Diamond, Adam Horovitz, Adam Yauch — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2000.
