Gar nicht mitbekommen, dass es einen Film über Jeff gibt mit der Musik seines Vaters: Greetings from Tim Buckley (Finde auch im Forum nichts dazu. Aber vielleicht kann ich auch einfach nicht suchen.)
Positive Kommentare (unter dem Trailer). Gefällt mir auch soweit.
Noch nicht zu Ende gesehen, aber ich tendiere dazu, Germ Free zuzustimmen:
Ok, so I think this movie is actually really good. It’s well-acted, sensitive, and extremely careful and reverent with the Buckley legacy. I just have to say though, the way Jeff is portrayed is not quite accurate. He comes across as depressed and floppy all the time in this movie. Like a bored teenager. I know the real Jeff had a tendency to be moody and clearly was sad a lot in his life, but from everything I saw of Jeff, footage-wise, he had such a quick-witted sharpness to him that isn’t really captured here, no offense Penn. He was spirited, funny, and talked a lot. I mean, Penn did a decent job, but I just wish the vibrancy of his spirit could have been captured a bit more. Also, for the record, during this period of his life (1991), he had longer hair and didn’t dress in the white vneck t-shirt motif that they depict in the film. His style was a little different because it wasn’t quite full-swing grunge era yet, he dressed more like that awkward 80s-early90s amorphous transition time. There are lots of pictures online that show what he looked like during the time of that concert. Wish they could have been more accurate in the movie because it would have been easy! But overall I commend this movie for its heart.
