Director Broomfield questions his "suicide" and paints a brutal, cold portrait of his wife, Courtney Love, going as far as to pose the scenario that she had him murdered. Love obviously did everything in her power to get this film banned, but it didn't work. Decide for yourself: vicious slander or intriguing enlightenment? [More]

Reviews for Kurt and Courtney
A sloppy, irresponsible, self-promoting p.o.s. that documents little more than people with an axe to grind. Broomfield would be better off writing for the Enquirer.
Unintentionally hilarious, due to Broomfield's complete inability to get access to the people he needs to speak with.
A sloppy but fascinating documentary. Broomfield finds some intriguing characters but doesn't know what "ACLU" stands for.
