Fascinating documentary, much underrated, 11 September 2002
10/10
Author: rich_jc

I am amazed at the overall negativity and ridicule in the reviews of this documentary. It deserves so much more praise than that.

Being a huge Nirvana fan, I never believed the "nutcase" murder theories until I saw Kurt & Courtney. Then I found out about her family, her friends, her former employees, among others all pointing the finger at Courtney. Everything from the psychotic teenage scribblings declaring her future plans to use her lover and then kill him, right down to amazingly coincidental and mysterious death of El Duce shortly after the Nick Bromfield interview - this is fascinating stuff. If that wasn't enough as it is, we get a good insight into the surroundings Kurt grew up in, his friends, and his former lovers. The only things this really lacks is a much needed interview with Courtney (which she declined).

8/10
