FAQ

Was El Duce's death suspicious?
Doesn't the test administred by the doctor prove that Kurt Cobain could have picked-up the shotgun, even if he had all that heroin in his body?
Is there a way of learning more about the case?

Excellent documentary!, 24 December 2001
10/10
Author: Nobody-27 from California

Not being particularly interested in either Kurt or Courtney, I was surprised how director Nick Broomfield managed to attract me to his film. His unique style gets us involved with the story that no one really knows where it's going. Not even the director himself. This may prove frustrating to those who have become accustomed to polished and hollywoodized type of film making, or those who are looking for a clear "angle". To me however, it was a wonderful gallery of many slices of real life: from director's own challenges to one of the best documentary film endings I've ever seen.

Hats off to Nick Broomfield for his uncompromising style and bravery.
