All in all this is a good dvd if you don't know much about Nirvana already, though some of the facts aren't quite correct and you never see or hear nirvana...you see a few pictures but thats about it. The people interviewed don't really have much to do with Kurt or Nirvana, apart from his uncle chuck, If you just want to find out some facts about Nirvana or Kurt I suggest looking on the web, just search using google you'll get a broader veiw on everything. But it's an ok dvd, and tells you a few thing you won't find many other places and a better view of Kurts childhood and teenage years than on most websites. (If you are having trouble finding this dvd buy i at play.com they have some in stock.) So all in all i say buy it if you have a few quid/dollars spair just to give you better knowlege of Nirvana

I've been a hardcore Nirvana fan for the past three years, and when I saw this DVD for sale I had to have it. Once the package arrived, I put it in, and after about 45 minutes of it I was highly disappointed. I expected interviews from the band, video, and some music. What I got was still images of the band. The only interview I actually enjoyed was from Kurt Cobain's grandfather, Leland Cobain. If anyone is wanting to learn more about Nirvana I'd suggest biographies or 'Journals', not this DVD.

i love nirvana. this dvd is crap. No one from the band had a speaking part or even a silient video part. There is only one 5 second clip of a nirvana song in the whole movie and the woman's voice who does the comentary is super annoying. Do not buy ever even if you want to own everything nirvana. Don't even take the risk to steal this thing. It sucks sucks sucks. They should be sued for making a missleading doucumentry and using five seconds of a nirvana song without the rights they didn't even get the nirvana font correct. this sux worthless

I am posting this, in response to the reviewers complaing about the lack of Nirvana songs and/or video clips in this documentary:

You need to know something first! You need to understand why there isn't one Nirvana song or video clip on this DVD. It's because Courtney Love doesn't like the British guy that is doing this documentary. So, Courtney didn't authorize ANY Nirvana songs or video, to be on the DVD! If the Producers of this DVD put a Nirvana song or video in this documentary... THEY WOULD HAVE BEEN SUED BY KURT'S KILLER (Courtney... for the Nirvana Newbies out there)!

The documentary is un-authorized, by that (...)

As I said in the title, this video SUCKS! NO nirvana music AT ALL, NO footage of the band other than pictures you can easily find on the internet or in any Nirvana book...this video may be for some people who are just learning about Nirvana but it is NOT for the hardcore fans. The cover says "in-depth interviews", but what they really mean is a bunch of people trying to get their 15 minutes of fame. I was told absolutely NOTHING I didn't know. If you want to know the real Nirvana story, READ A BOOK. "Come As You Are: The Story of Nirvana" is a MUCH better resource (AND it has better pictures!). And for actual footage of the band, get "Nirvana! Live! Tonight! Sold Out!" Yes, that's a REAL Nirvana video for REAL Nirvana fans.

First of all, below is my own personal opinion not affiliated with anyone or anything.
This DVD does not contain any interviews from band members. I bought this because it sounded like it contained 'previously unseen' interviews from the band, but there is none. No wonder Kurt killed himself. Anyone who spoke to him once in their lifetime comes out to testify and analyze their encounters millions of years ago, probably for a sum of money. What a pity when everyone pretends to be your best friend to ride on the success wagon. It makes you hate human beings.
I have to say, though, that the background music sounded pretty good (it's not Nirvana. According to the other reviewer, it's from Earwig.)

This DVD was so boring i wanted to turn it off half way through. The only thing about this whole Dvd i liked is the stories from Kurt's friends, they had a few funny stories to tell about Kurt but that was it. There is no Nirvana music and no footage of them.
