I am going to echo the sentiments expressed in the review of Abrielle Vintigan about this exquisite documentary: it is achingly beautiful and surprisingly moving. I don't really know what I was expecting when we it selected last night to watch, but I certainly wasn't expecting a jaw-dropping story of a "life fully lived," told through the seemingly endless video that Kilmer had recorded, and stored, from his childhood days up through present day. The fact that he started recording at such a young age, BEFORE we all could yank our phones out of our pocket to record anything we want, is absolutely mind-blowing. Kilmer is my generation -- we are just a few years apart in age. -- so I have seen many of his films and appreciated his talent and good looks...but this film elevated my respect for him more than I would have ever imagined. The editing of this film is astounding...with Kilmer's earlier videos, film clips, interviews, etc. expertly folded together with his present day life.I dare you to not be blown away when he goes back to Arizona to claim his mom's ashes, and the montage of childhood images is fused with the present day house. I could say so much more, which means that I have disproven my original statement of "no words." It's actually the opposite -- there are so many words I could say that I have to be disciplined and stop now, so I don't waste another moment of your time that you could be watching this glorious, bittersweet legacy piece.
