Explains the legacy of GG quite well.

Being a huge fan of GG Allin I had low expectations for this movie as I thought that it would never do GG justice. However to my surprise I found that it was a pretty good little documentary. It was not sugar coated in any way and it told things like they truly were. GG may have offended the masses and he may be looked at in bad light by the majority of the population but he will always have his cult following.
