ThisIsNowhere Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Has anyone else seen this documentary yet? I saw it last night in Seattle and I have to say I was pretty impressed. As a fan there was a lot in it that I didn't know before, the only thing I wish they did differently was show less montages of bridges in Portland There were parts in it where they played stuff that Elliott said in interviews that genuinely made me laugh laugh out loud, if anything I think this documentary helped showed the side of Elliott Smith that wasn't a depressed singer songwriter all of the time. I think it was definitely worth the price of admission. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ThisIsNowhere Posted May 22, 2015 Author Share Posted May 22, 2015 He looks so bummed out in that picture! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
remphish1 Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 It was one of the last shows he ever played it was tough to watch at the time. It's amazing how different his live show was from 2000-2003 he was nice and friendly even though he seemed to be somewhere else Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SarahC Posted May 23, 2015 Share Posted May 23, 2015 I saw it back a few weeks ago At the downtown theatre. Was surprised there were more people there besides me and my sister. I think 10-12 other folks were there. Loved it so much. Can't wait to buy it. I never got the chance to see him live. There's another doc about him that is supposed to be coming out also (I think)...
