The mainstays of Leonard Cohen: I'm Your Man tribute-concert document are Cohen's kindred Montreal folk artistes: Rufus Wainwright, his sister, Martha (taking a real star turn), his mother, Kate McGarrigle, and her sister, Anna. Assisted by Antony, Nick Cave, and others, they trade off on the poet's brooding, wry songbook. And the honoree's sober reading of ''Tower of Song'' with U2 — a goofy music-video-style denouement in the movie — is better heard here than seen.
