There are many documentaries about child stars, but very few made by the star themselves. She could have spun it to make herself look like a hero, but instead, she presented unfiltered glimpses into her life in the 90s, complete with all of the raw emotions she was experiencing at the time. Nowadays, every teenager has video footage of their life that could later be edited into a documentary, but for a teenager to capture video footage like this in the 90s was extremely rare. Self-made documentaries of this type will likely become much more common in the future, especially now that there are vloggers recording every moment of their lives, but this may well be the only one of its kind from before the turn of the millennium.
