About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like intimate, music-focused documentaries built around personal memories and archival footage, similar to Gaga: Five Foot Two or Gimme Danger; not for you if you want a hard-hitting investigative take.
Pros: rare behind-the-scenes footage; heartfelt personal testimonies; celebrates lasting influence | Cons: limited critical distance; familiar documentary beats; may feel reverent
