About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you love music documentaries and want an up-close, unpredictable tour snapshot of fame and artistry in motion; Not for you if you dislike confrontational press interactions or prefer long, fully played concert performances like Monterey Pop or Stop Making Sense.
Pros: stays memorable; lively tour energy; unfiltered persona | Cons: tough personality moments; music mostly snippets; some scenes harder follow
