Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck invites you to experience Kurt’s life, art, and mind through his own unique lens, bringing you as close to the generation-defining icon as it’s possible to get. This first-ever fully authorized documentary feature blends Cobain’s personal archive of art, music (both his most famous and some that’s never been heard), written word, and never-before-seen home movies with animation and revelatory interviews from his family and closest confidantes. Following Kurt from his earliest years in Aberdeen, Wash., through the height of his fame, it creates an intense and powerful cinematic insight into an artist who craved the spotlight even as he rejected the trappings of fame. Those of Kurt’s generation will learn things about him they never knew. Those who’ve discovered the man and his music more recently will understand what makes Kurt the lasting icon that he is. Just like the legendary frontman of Nirvana himself, Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck is authentic, visceral, and unflinching. It will get into your head and stay there long after the end credits roll.

I'm not a fan of Nirvana, and I've never actively sought out their music; at one point, I even quite disliked it. That has passed and I can now listen to their songs. But this documentary is absolutely brilliant. It's an excellent example of filmmaking when someone really puts effort into the form and editing, piecing together materials filmed directly by the subject or those close to them with material created specifically for the film. An incredible added value, for example, lies in the animated segments. This is how I imagine a great documentary.
