I guess nirvana was never anything special to me, but it really irritates guys like pimpekror who jump into this thread just to spout their nonsense about how Kurt wasn't even good... honestly, morons, screw all those Varg Vikernes types and every other retarded Scandinavian out there
I used to have a decent amount of respect for critics—you know, they actually get the music and understand the nuances, though whether they listen to the same stuff I do was always a tossup. That changed when one of them wrote in a daily newspaper that 'Morphine' had some great saxophonist named Dan Colley... 😠 ...honestly, I lost my mind. I spent the entire afternoon calling the newsroom trying to get him on the phone, but luckily for him, I never did reach him...
I guess they didn't completely overlook the Canadian influence... hm... from your post, I get the feeling you haven't actually seen the movie. I can tell you, though, that Mirkovic wasn't trying to cover every single film in that genre. His goal was just to capture the essence of an era... and honestly? I think he nailed it.

which, whose nations...😕 American
And that whole bit about "breaking through" or "tearing down communist censorship"—well, I guess it wasn't The Beatles who actually did that, but more like a whole new wave...
I’d suggest everyone give this movie a watch... regardless of whether you actually dig modern music or not... personally, that kind of sound means nothing to me, but the film itself is top-tier... stripped of any heavy-handed ideology, it just uses a bit of dark humor to poke fun at the old days, you know, those era-defining censors in their black leather jackets...😁 It definitely gets pretty bloody... I caught it about five months ago... one of the most striking moments is when Igor Mirkovic shows up in Amsterdam "to a chair..."... I won't say anything else...😁
