Taking Independent and Unofficial Back

Has anyone read the NYT article about the delayed documentary?

Some of it we kind of already know about but there are a couple of things that are difficult to learn. I recently saw the Wham documentary and even though I liked it, I think it could have been a lot less "happy". Having said that, I don't know how to feel about the unpleasant parts of Prince's story. And I don't mean the issues he had with his parents. That's part and parcel. I guess more like the control he had over his associates and friends when he was younger. And this incident with Jill Jones.
At the minimum, I hope we get to see some of the live performances.
I tried to attach the pdf but it's too big. Anyway, I'd be interested in everyone's opinion.
 
If you want to read the article, I shared the article from my NYTimes sub. It’s in a thread I named

Netflix-sponsored, 9-hour long documentary on Prince’s life by Ezra Edelman​

If I have time later, I’ll attach it over here, too.

I put it in a different ‘forum’:

Prince Related Youtube, Podcasts and Reviews​

You should be able to read the article there.
