Notes et avis

I love rock n roll history, especially the 1960s, but walked away from this movie feeling nothing for any of the characters. They were difficult to know because of the pace of the movie and, consequently, hard to empathize with. I turned it off about halfway through and just skimmed to the end.

The soundtrack is good in the movie, but the film will leave you scratching your head. There's no real growth and scenes are often cut short for no good reason.

And so much more. It examines the risk we all run of falling into oblivion. And it does it brilliantly. Definitely a must see.
