COMMUNITY REVIEWS
Indie Rockin' Doc submitted by whoisdonald on July 12, 2014, 4:09pm This doc won a top prize at Sundance for good reason. It's a fascinating portrait of a widely influential artist, created by an artistically thoughtful filmmaker. It's also a strong illustration for the sparks of genius that can be found along the spectrum of mental imbalances and illness. Highly recommended viewing.
