I went to see "New York Doll" expecting to see a Rock documentary.
Instead I found the movie to be a touching and heartfelt look at a
former rock stars religious conversation.
Arthur "Killer" Kane hit rock bottom with alcohol, but he turned to the
Bible and to his church. Its an amazing story about how having faith
can really help you change your life and fulfill your dream.
I liked that the movie was not preachy against rock music. It showed
his Ministers and how they spiritually supported his decision to play
again with the band. And I think Arthur portrayed such a fine example
of his Morman faith when he got back together with his band mates and
dealt with the bad feelings of the past.
The film interviews both Rock Stars, and Mormon Church Members, all
talking about Arthur and the New York Dolls. In doing this, it shows
both sides of Arthur Kane - the RockStar, and the Devout Mormon. This
is a very touching tribute to this member of the New York Dolls.
