Set in Palm Desert, CA and hedged by dusty mountains, indian casinos, white limos and plastic swans, Welcome to Me, directed by Shira Piven, is new territory for comedian and leading actress Kristin Wiig. ![]() Immersive and at times painful, Montage maintains a course of integrity and charm, all the while driving at Cobain’s mortality and the nebulous suffering that underscored his legend. The film includes new interviews with Cobain’s close friends and family and is underscored by a veritable album of unheard Cobain and Nirvana cassette recordings. The years of Cobain’s youth that remain undocumented Morgen chose to fill liberally with Cobain’s doodles, writing and animated shorts made from over 8,000 hand-painted canvases. The footage in “Montage of Heck” spans Cobain’s life - from hyper-saturated home videos from his childhood in Aberdeen, WA to footage of his private life with Love and onstage performances. Morgen, whose outstanding documentary work includes “A Kid Stays in The Picture” and “Crossfire 10,” has once more crafted a visceral and incredibly detailed documentary using unprecedented access to previously untouched Cobain archives. Frances Bean, daughter of Kurt Cobain and Courtney Love, hand-picked Director Brett Morgen for “Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck”. ![]()
