I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

it is finally so absorbing because it plays like a lyrical road odyssey that’s also a detective story.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

It has not been a different life than the other 27's. It has not been a different life than other real stars. Filmin structure was not good. I guess they did it without much effort. He did not elaborate after Janis's death. No special music was made for the film. I did not like your director very much. The film has not succeeded in dramatic places as well. It was not nice without Janis. There was an air of sadness. Although a girl who was excluded in her childhood and adolescence was given a nice star, she had not been given any details when necessary.

I remember listening to Janis while she was alive, and I was not a fan during her life. Now that she has been gone for so many years, I still can't stand her. Nothing against her, I feel the same way about Morrison and the 'Doors.' Neither of these did anything for me and I certainly did not miss them. The movie/documentary is a bit pandering and over-the- top is OK...but not honest. One can not stop people on a path to self-distraction. I am so saddened and somewhat offended when troubled souls are elevated to some iconic status, marched through media tabloids as 'great' people. These folks are suffering and some had honesty might succeed in saving them. Nah...the documentary seems to miss the mark.

An experienced documentarist who poses her eye on one of the greatest in the history of music. Very remarkable the amount of footage of Janis in her glory days. Presetns a lot of testimonials from people very close to her(both professionally, and personally), which allows us to feel a little more closely, both the achievements and thesuccesses, as well as the sorrows and sufferings of the genius of Janis. Another positive aspect is the letters or written records of Janis. IT also lets us enjoy many moments of live music, which is always good in a music documentary. Very exciting and entertaining.

As an avid Janis Joplin Fan I really wanted to see this Documentary.However with only 1 theater showing it within a 30 mile radius of my home how do they expect this film to do well? Moreover there is only 7 showings a day. I do not live in a remote part of the United States. So why is it there is only 1 theater in New York showing it? Seems the producers of the film have doomed it to failure before it was ever released. I hope it gets released on Blu Ray as it appears that is the only way I will get to see it. Disappointed Fan!
