I am a big music fan and like some of Iggy's solo stuff but haven't really ever gone back to source and listened extensively to the stooges. Despite that, I found this a really interesting documentary focusing on the stooges from the band members meeting, through to their original demise in 1973 through to their reformation starting in 2003. For a band notorious for some crazy antics, there is a lot of warmth not only from Jaramusch but more importantly from the band about their time as a group and a fondness for each other which comes across as very genuine. It doesn't get more than an 8 though as sometimes things come across a bit messy, with interviews not making a lot of sense or occasionally seeming to lack context. Overall though I really enjoyed it and will be putting my wrong in not vesting time in the stooges, right in the very near future.
