11. Cobain: Montage of Heck
An authorised Kurt Cobain documentary has been a long time coming. We've had plenty to choose from, such as Nick Broomfield’s Kurt & Courtney and About a Son. Both movies exhibited dignified qualities in their own right, but Brett Morgen’s Cobain: Montage of Heck is a far more personal, intimate and inspiring look at the American music icon. Montage of Heck explores the mindset of a troubled genius, a boy who was bounced around from parent to parent then subsequently rejected by society before punk rock saved him. But even punk rock let him down in the end.
