Whatever the creators
of this documentary set out to achieve, they certainly achieved that rare quality
of a film that can be summed up in two words: disastrously good. Come to think of it, there’s no other way you
can think of this face, swallowing every close-up, this talent, so inescapable
as to seem completely out of control, and this girl, glorious and tragic.
Indeed, this felt like a
message from another world. Too bad the message is lost in the fucking songs.
