FREAKING AWESOME this documentary introduced me to the band and i’ve been a mega fan since this is like my 8th watch and i freaking love it every time😋😋😋😋😋
chleor1234 on Letterboxd Excellent! Misunderstood pioneers. Everything they proposed was criticized, only to be adopted later and endure to this day. What a great band!
elifernandezz on Letterboxd This is a fun movie if you love the band, and maybe even if you’ve never heard of them before. The interviews are thought-provoking, funny, and moving; the filmmaking is superb, and the music kicks ass.
