If you are at all interested in guitar players, you should definitely check out documentary "It Might Get Loud" from 2008. Jack White, Jimmy Paige and The Edge get together for a session and talk about their musicianship, pedals, effects, and what inspires them. Jack and Jimmy are pure legends, what The Edge is doing there I really don't get, but I guess it's because of his originality. A defining moment of the film is when Paige churns out the riffs from Whole Lotta Love live in front of The Edge and Jack White. The glow in their eyes tells us they are experiencing a magic moment.
Towards the end, all three start jamming. Jimmy and Jack gets into a bluesy groove, but The Edge just can't get into the flow, he's simply not a blues-based guitarist. More of a pluckety-plickety kinda player. Which works just great for U2.
Anyway, if you are into rock and guitars, this one is a must: Here's a clip from a TV show about the movie:
