Oooh, yeah! The version that's in the movie is actually the reprise. Those few seconds just before Dylan starts strumming the chords--the looks on Robertson's, Danko's, and Helm's faces --"OK, where's he gonna go now?"--are worth the price of the movie by themselves. The DVD has lots of great commentary about things like that.
I no longer even mind about stuff like Neil Diamond (whom I really admire, but "a place for everything and everything in it's place!"); or all the overdubbing (that's just Robbie--gotta put a gloss on everything); or the fact that the movie is basically a paean from Scorcese to his toot buddy Robbie. I'm just grateful we've got it.
