| Overview: | A characteristically unflinching, daring and contentious film that sheds fascinating new light on the life and death of Nirvana leader and iconic generational spokes-person, Kurt Cobain.
Controversial filmmaker Nick Broomfield (director of "Biggie & Tupac") interviewed various Cobain associates in an attempt to examine the unexplained circumstances surrounding the singer's apparent suicide. Broomfield suddenly finds his progress strenuously obstructed by Courtney Love, Cobain's wife who becomes a fearsome adversary. Could Love, now a respected Hollywood actress and musician in her own right, ("Hole") be somehow implicated in Cobain's untimely demise?
"Kurt & Courtney" is both a compelling search for truth and a revealing and insightful look into Cobain's troubled life. A fascinating examination of power and corruption, it's also a telling peek into the paranoid world of celebrity and a testimony to the importance of free speech and the freedom of the press.
