I think that the saddest thing about most films or shows about music industry personalities is that they seem to angst over explaining or making background details clear, and in the process become stiff, unnatural, phony and fake....The other major problem is that no one will willing to tell the truth ! In life we are all flawed, so why is every one trying to make the characters appear perfect.
As I scan through the list of talented people that I have had the pleasure of working with in the entertainment industry, throughout my life, they were all devils and angels, kind and cruel, wonderful thoughtful people and complete assholes at the same time. It is these dynamics that create those amazing personas. So why can't they be portrayed as they truly, and really were? I think that those who insist upon burying saints, are doing everyone, especially the fans, a huge disservice, and I wish they would stop.
