Kurt and Nancy, or, What's the deal with Courtney Love?

by vania , Dec 17 '01
Pros: Interesting and odd assortment of people.
Cons: Are they for real??
Seven reasons Courtney Love scares me, and should scare you, too:

1. She aspired to meet Michael Stipe as a stepping-stone for being famous (and she did, too.)
2. She has a tendency to wear smeary-red lipstick.

Kurt and Courtney: Smells Like The Worst Kind of Journalism...

by mgreber Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Apr 21 '01
Pros: Some nice old footage of Cobain. Watching Broomfield be manipulated is good as well.
Cons: An insult to good documentary filmmakers everywhere, as well as Nirvana and Hole fans.
If Kurt and Courtney was anything but a documentary, it might be decent entertainment. There’s certainly some memorable characters:

1. The ambitious girl, making notes for herself as a child to “be friends with Michael Stipe,” and...

Nevermind This Movie

by erivan79 , Jan 09 '02
Pros: Interesting perspective of Kurt's life, some entertaining characters
Cons: Crappy music, shoddy interviews
This documentary isn't an entire waste of time, but it comes close. I had tickets to see this at the Sundance festival, but Courtney Love went to court to have it stopped. I believe it ended up being shown once, and not for the date I had tickets for....

It's a Man's Man's Man's Man's World

by IndieWorld , May 22 '00
Pros: It's a great source of information on filmmaker Nick Broomfield
Cons: It's a meager source of information on Cobain and/or Love
On the subject of Courtney Love I am deeply conflicted. I admire her moxie, her toughness, her proclivity to call a spade a spade. This is, after all, a woman who went to the Grammys last February and justifiably spent the rest of the night disparaging...

Was it Suicide or is Courtney Love a heartless murderer? YOU DECIDE!

by kate99gnr , Mar 21 '01
Pros: Great never before seen footage of Kurt Cobain before + with Nirvana!
Cons: 95 minutes, a little long/little boring at times
Are you looking for a controversial documentary on one of the decades most important rock-and-roll icons and inventor of grunge music? Then this movie is what you are looking for, focusing on Kurt Cobain and his life before and during his life with...

Even Worse Than Courtney's Singing

by jsmooth995 , May 23 '00
Pros: Sometimes entertainingly awful.
Cons: Usually just awful.
Let me start with a confession: I think Courtney love sucks. Whether it's Old Dirty Courtney or the new clean model, I see a huge ego with little talent and no integrity. So when I heard about Nick Broomfield's new documentary "Kurt and...

Good, but could have been much better

by melanierose , Jan 17 '00
Pros: Cool interviews and info
Cons: Nothing really new as far as information goes, no music or live footage, no interviews with Kurt and Courtney
Let me start out by saying that I am a huge fan of both Courtney Love and Kurt Cobain. I thought that this documentary would be really intersting as it is about two artists that I've always loved.
I was wrong though. Although this video was alright...

A good documentary.

by soadnirvana , Apr 26 '06
Pros: AMAZING MOVIE
Cons: Nick Broomfield is a bit weird
Whether you think so or not, I think this is a decent film for a hardcore Nirvana fan and expert like myself. Call me naive, or an individual with little experience rating journalism, but the truth is you don't know squat. I was a journalism major in ...

Kurt: Killed not killer

by 9029 , Apr 04 '00
Pros: Good information
Cons: Kind of long
Have any of you seen the Kurt and Courtney documentary? Well, if your a Kurt Cobain fan this is the movie for you. Before I saw that movie I had the same generallization as everyone else... that Kurt was another victim of celebrity suicide. Needless...

Kurt and Courtney- What A Flop!

by cinnamongirl , Jan 05 '00
Pros: has Cobain's earliest recordings, good interviews with people close to Cobain
Cons: poorly done, ridiculous accusations toward Courtney Love
A while back I saw the documentary entitled, "Kurt and Courtney", which was done by Nick Broomfield. Around the time that this documentary was released, there was much controversy surrounding the release of it, particularly fueled by Courtney...

Daylight breaks - Kurt was killed

by kevinmcg , Jan 04 '00
Pros: great first-hand interviews, very enlightening
Cons: no Nirvana music
I'm as much a Nirvana fan as the next guy. I think Kurt Cobain was one of the greatest, most influencial song-writers in the latter half of the 20th century. That's why I wanted to see this movie, to maybe try and see what happened there, and why a...

WHO KILLED KURT??

by LRonHubbs , Jun 25 '00
Pros: Great Views, New Info. Straight to the point.
Cons: Could have been organized better.
A 95 minute documentary,made by Nick Broomfield, this film was based upon the murder of Kurt Cobain. Cobain was the Singer/Songwriter for the grunge band Nirvana. I think that the film "Kurt and Courtney" was an overall great film. It gives the...

<Blech>

by mcfadmk , Jan 12 '00
Pros: Background info on Kurts early years
Cons: Largely boring and pointless
First of all, this film doesn't prove anything. If anything it raises even more questions. I must admit I enjoyed parts of it, as I am a huge Kurt fan, but the implication that Courtney killed Kurt is largely unfounded. That nonsense aside, it was...

Pros: waste of money
Cons: waste of money

Kurt and Courtney-the real truth

by MintyChip15 , Oct 22 '00
Pros: many pictures, never before seen art
Cons: i wouldve liked to see more of Kurt's band members
I recently rented this video after spending about an hour at our nearest Blockbuster. I have always been a big fan of Kurt's band Nirvana, ever since the beginning and i was really hurt and confused after his death. I rented the video to learn more...
