After rocker Kurt Cobain's death, ruled a suicide, a film crew arrives in Seattle to make a documentary. Director Nick Broomfield talks to lots of people. Portraits emerge: a shy, slight Kurt, weary of touring, embarrassed by fame, hooked on heroin; an out-going Courtney, dramatic, controlling, moving from groupie to star.

Slightly perplexed by the average rating of this one. What were people expecting? A definitive courtroom-ready answer to one of the most mythologised deaths ever? Sure it’s a bit messy and sometimes amateurish but in wandering about following dead ends and letting dubious interviews sprawl Broomfield captures a grim little ecosystem of people who immediately clocked there was a living to be made off the whole thing. That’s the real film really, not what happened but what happened after: the hangers-on and the bottom feeders from Cobain’s orbit who all somehow have a version of events that conveniently keeps them in the story
