The movie makers nicely direct the movie to be the animation of Kurt Cobain's own mind, at least his mind which is expressed out through his scrapbook scribbles, and early on diary type notes. I really like how the early parts use a bleak and crude animation form to really give life to the story of Kurt's early adolescent life. Yet the movie goes too long in duration. Most of the home videos could have been edited away to cut on duration, just as the scene's idea gets delivered. The other that makes the movie quite weird is that in using all those scrapbook scribbles directly into the screen, the movie really didn't add more clarity so that people can read it. In resorting to maintain the original look of Kurt handwriting, the presentation lacks clarity thus disabling proper reading. The movie should have done a zoom and some kind of rolling marquee on those scribbles so that people can read most of them better.
