Yes.
I think you're right because I, again, back to the Bob Dylan movie from last year,

There is still something to, wow, I am seeing something that looks great, sounds great, and I feel like I am in the moment.
Why I never want to see Bob Dylan live for this.
Have you found, whether yourselves or anecdotally people in your lives, do you feel like these movies send people back to the music?
