Really fantastic

Thankfully, this doc doesn't obsess on Prince's peak years and gloss over the rest of the story.

This doc IS the rest of the story.

As a lifelong fan, this is a great in-depth dive into the end of the relationship with Warner Bros. and the post-WB years.

I lived through these years as a fan, and they were sometimes excruciatingly frustrating, but halfway through this I thought to myself, "Prince was right."

He was ahead of the curve and prescient in not only his art, but in his relationship with the recording industry.

This documentary really covers all of this very well without being sycophantic view if events.
