Average Rating:N/A

Consensus: Nick Moran's excellent portrait of an often forgotten pop legend is as eccentric and chaotic as its subject.

Genre: Dramas

1 - 1 (sorted by date)

Fairly crackles with character and period flavor for its first 90 minutes but is let down by a repetitive and tiresomely maudlin final half-hour.
