Kurt And Courtney
A controversial documentary on acclaimed musician Kurt Cobain, one of 1990's most important rock-and-roll figures. Director Broomfield questions his 'suicide' and paints a brutal, cold portrait of his wife, Courtney Love, going as far as to pose the scenario that she had him murdered. Love obviously did everything in her power to get this film banned, but it didn't work. Decide for yourself: vicious slander or intriguing enlightenment

Courtney Love, Cobain's widow, refused to participate in the movie or to allow his music to be played, which is here treated as an assault on civil liberties rather than the good sense it was.

It would have been more interesting if Broomfield had examined interviews with Kurt specifically, and perhaps, looked at ...
