It won &#8220;Best Music Video, Long Form&#8221; at the 1987 Grammy Awards (which makes complete sense), and remains an invaluable time capsule of the artist at work. There&#8217;s a nice balance of light-hearted banter, creative collaboration, and truly fine music &#8212; especially by pianist Kenny Kirkland and saxophonist Branford Marsalis. While it&#8217;s not must-see by all film fanatics, it&#8217;s a well-done example of what concert films can offer to audiences. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>An intriguing glimpse behind the scenes of Sting&#8217;s creative world<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"854\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-69322\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still.png 854w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 854px) 100vw, 854px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"854\" height=\"480\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-69320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2.png 854w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2-128x72.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2-768x432.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/02\/Bring-On-the-Night-Still2-480x270.png 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 854px) 100vw, 854px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nNo, but it&#8217;s recommended.
