Just saw this - first impressions

I think the Stiff person syndrome she battles is gruesome. Her spasm seizures are taking a severe toll on her body. The documentary focuses on her life with this disease intertwined with moments from her interviews on various tv appearances. The storytelling pace lacks a bit of clarity in direction. However, the doc is pretty much showing us her life now and her hope to one day return to the stage. I wish her well and I hope her dream to return comes true.

90% of it, not so much - the last 10% very.

I felt sorry for her. She's aged badly also.

We all age. I dont even know if she s had work done. Regardless, how one ages is not their fault. And a class act like her is a class act at any age.

She was homely even at her peak. At least she never got obvious plastic surgeries unlike most artists at her age.

so it isn't a retrospective doc about her career? Titanic gets a mention?

[–] roxi1st (59) 8 months ago

No, its a doc about her life now. It also shows moments from the past, concerts, intrviews, etc
