'Montage of Heck' - VICE Meets Kurt Cobain Documentary Filmmaker Brett Morgen

We met up with director Brett Morgen, the man responsible for one of the one of the most highly anticipated music documentaries in recent years "Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck." The Oscar-nominated filmmaker was allowed unfettered access to the Nirvana singer's archives, stitching together an unflinchingly intimate portrait of a man which includes never before seen artwork, journal entries, and incredible home videos, from Cobain as a child right through to mere months before his death. "Montage…" also features interviews with the singer's family members on camera for the first time ever. Vice's Kim Taylor Bennett talked to Morgen about the legacy of Cobain, his paradoxical nature, the women in his life, and the daunting task of accurately portraying a man so revered.
Montage of Heck premieres May 4th on HBO.

There is a awesome Nirvana doc on here from a fan its called Verse Chorus Verse Documentary.. Tells the timeline and unheard stories.Pretty cool

When I watched, I paused it often to read the journal entries and notes, like the one where Kurt writes a letter to Dave on behalf of the band where he question's Dave's commitment to the band and whether or not Dave even wanted to continue to be in the band.

[@justinwalsh4368]

Coming from someone who has been a Nirvana fan and Kurt fan while they were still together and he was still alive, this was a great documentary, but it has some major flaws. 1. They could have shown the funnier side of Kurt to balance out his personality using more footage from interviews 2. They should have used more audio from Kurt telling stories in his own words while still showing the journal entries 3. There wasnt enough footage of him and the band playing on stage live 4. There wasnt enough music from the Fecal Matter era 5. They could have shown more rare photos or just more photos in general 6. The film about a son seems to bring you closer to who Kurt was than this film 7. DAVE GROHL WAS NOT IN THE FILM 8. Michael Azzerad had over 25 hours of Audio Cassette tapes of an interview with Kurt that he found stored in boxes that were not used in this film. 9. Kurt was huge on the way the Music videos looked and if this film is about showing you his art, why didnt they use more footage of the music videos 10. The environments and geographical areas where Kurt lived had a huge impact on Kurt and was something that didnt get shown. 11. They needed to do this in a 5 part series, 5 hours or longer to give it more depth as opposed to an hour and 44 minutes.

[@AutumnAsh81]

theres to much i want to write back to you. dave couldnt be in it, he didnt have time. they tried. but dave knew cobain just before and after he was famous. they already had enuf people to talk about that part of his life. and morgan did try to get dave many times anyway, but i too was upset when i heard he wasnt in it, but tho i do love dave, his abcess wasnt missed when i watched it. the tapes Azzerad has is old news. why do you want another doc. with the same shit weve all heard over and over again, like about a son. yes, that was a great film, but i do actually like this as much, if not actually way better. they do show a side of cobain you dont often hear or see. his family life. you mentioned about fecal matter, and tho it was mentioned the films isnt jjust about cobain and his connection to nirvana. its more about his art than his music was. its more about him, and his childhood than nirvana. nirvana wasnt the topic for the film. you asked why didnt they show more shit from his music cause its about the art. cause cobain didnt shoot the videos. he had the idea for teen spirit but the director also helped, the only one that truely seems to be mostly all his idea was heart shaped box. but more than one person is involved in a music video. id rather see art that ONLY cobain did. as they did show. not art that he was involved in.

[@ViciousMaximus]

[@omargracia1868]

Something that caught my attention in the interview with Kurt's mother is that she described his son as someone who was looking for perfection in his music. I don't think that Kurt Cobain was a perfectionist, he was a creative but never that.

We need a Layne Staley documentary

[@LunargleLovegood]

Thats what i was gonna say ! Layne is so fucking underrated !

[@jackiecieri]

Rebphoenix Yes we do

[@jackiecieri]

***** That's awesome dude i'm from Mass!

[@1122redbird]

Rebphoenix Yes, that would be cool. I'm into different kinds of music as my taste has changed and evolved since I was younger, but I remember Alice in Chains, I think it was '93, at Lollapalooza, I was up really close to the stage when AIC came on and the hair on my back stood up at that chilling performance. It was pure power, anger and art. I'd like to know what was up with Layne, and hear his story.

[@roninchains8099]

Rebphoenix Took the words right out of my mouth. Look I like Kurt and Nirvana, but IMO, Layne was a 100 times better singer and more talented then Kurt ever was. And AIC for me was just a shit load better band and more diverse then Nirvana was. I really do hope sometime soon they make a Layne Staley movie/documentary. It just sickens me how underrated Layne was and still is today, and how forgotten he is becoming. Layne's my idol so for me at least he will always be cherished and remembered until the day I die.

[@gregpett]

VICE Thank you, In some strange way I feel Kurt's story applies to all of us.

[@jimmyfabs78]

MrRoka4200 I agree with you brother! This was another platform for Courtney to tell some more lies. In this film she says Kurt swallowed 67 rohypnol, she originally said "1994" that he swallowed 50' so which is it? 50 or 67 because that's a big difference. The doctor that treated Kurt in Rome said that was false, Kurt did not swallow that many pills and also said he didn't think it was a suicide attempt. One rohypnol is enough to render a person unconscious enough to be able to rape them, etc. I can only imagine 50 or 67 would straight up kill someone. Especially since he apparently lay there for who knows how long before Courtney found him. Also when you pump a person's stomach from a pill overdose there are usually undigested pills if treated quickly. Not the case here. She's lying her ass off.

[@rx1vivola591]

[@lorenfulghum2393]

I'd like to know why he changed kurt's drawings from their original state to appear more demented. I was surprised to see the differences between how I had seen them in MOH and how they actually appear in person at his museum exhibit.

[@christopherfox7539]

There is just something that rubs me the wrong way about this guy. And I really believe he had no clue about Kurt or his life. The film itself is nice but I just don't feel it is an accurate portrait of Kurt at all. Brett just seems to be full of himself but short on empathy with the subject of his film....

[@ripqhy]

this

[@pts5217]

I disagree. There was a lot of subtlety and subtext and maybe some things were missed if taken at surface level. What do you think he got wrong?

[@Shevilbean]

I find it ironic when somebody like Brett Morgan tries to play the role of somebody who made a masterpiece or piece of art, when all he did ask some family members a few questions and arrange somebody else's art and call it his own movie. Hmm. Sit down, guy.

LAYNE STALEY DOCUMENTARY!!

[@cgbach]

I just saw the documentary, man when he was playing the mtv concert I literally started crying because I could see in his eyes and hear in his voice how much fucking pain he felt about life in general. An inescapable pain from his childhood when he tried to kill himself then also. Some people never change because they can't. Nobody can; the chemistry of the brain dictates otherwise. Together with that, heroine, and the media, I now fully understand his suicide. Fuck all these conspiracies about how maybe he was murdered. Suicide is painless.

[@TheAnalyticalFailure]

ness550 This movie isn't intended to be a sham, nor gossip. It is supposed to remove every all the lenses of bias that always appear when Kurt is examined. It isn't Kurt examined, it is Kurt revealed. Would he have hated that? Yes. And he would have loved it. And he would have kept going back and forth between those conflicting emotions, and were he alive, it would generate more great art. So fuck off please and let his fans reach him once more.

[@ness550]

He wanted his fans to stop talking about him. go read his writings and his suicide note idiot. You're a fool.

[@TheAnalyticalFailure]

I have read a lot of his stuff, and his suicide note was written in a state of total depression while he was high as fuck. That doesn't invalidate it but you need to understand what place that comes from. He was very conflicted. He wrote back and forth about how he wanted people to read what he wrote, and then not, and then he did, and then he didn't again. He was a very conflicted person which is part of what made him so creative.

[@ThisIsF-dUp]

JUSTICE FOR KURT: 10.) The Seattle medical examiner, Dr Nikola Hartshorne (Dr NH) is a friend of CL from before he was a doctor. He had promoted rock bands in the '80's. So no surprise when he rules for CL's version of events, as a suicide. 11.) Dr NH is also the ME for the death of CL's bassist, Kristen Pfaff (KP) who was killed two months after the murder of KC, and after being given heroin by another Hole band member, Erick Erlandson (EE). EE is in love with CL at the time. CL was very jealous over KC and KP's new relationship. 12.) EE is at KC's house the day he died after CL asked him to go to the house to look for her husband. 13.) Two months after KC was murdered, and just weeks after KP was killed, Dr NH, who by all accounts was rising up the ladder at work, leaves to live in Florida. His Seattle coworkers are all surprised. 14.) Just three months after KC was murdered, DT, of the SPD, is murdered by two guys who set him up to be killed by pretending to have a flat tire. 15.) Lead on the CK case, Detective Cameron (DC), and the boss of DT, is fired three years after the murder of CK for bribery and corruption. He had been with SPD for 39 years. 16.) No fingerprints on the shotgun shells. So, I think CL had EE give KC a mickey in his root beer (the Valium found in KC's blood) and then gave him a massive dose of heroin when KC was already passed out. EE then leaves and Allen Wrench comes in alone, instructed by CL, to get the shotgun she knew KC had purchased with his buddy Dylan Thomas, and to use it on KC. Dylan admits he told CL about the shotgun prior. Then CL has EE give her rival, KP, an OD of heroin. EE is the only person to be seen entering her residence that night. He left 30 minutes later. So then CL hires some thugs to pretend a flat tire on the route of off duty DT and have him killed. Dead men tell no tales. In 2002 Dr NH dies in a mysterious base jumping accident. Allen Wrench is still alive.

[@EdieSexwitch]

Kurt would have hated this. Pisces like to have their privacy, this is a complete invasion. The women in Kurt's life and it pains me to say this cos I'm a woman, but I see both sides. Courtney and to a lesser degree, Frances threw Kurt, the private Kurt out there for the world to judge because they're angry that he left them. Kurt's mother never protected him and this guy Brett Morgan is just an opportunistic snake who slithered in to capitalize on a family tragedy. Basically Kurt was always on his own/alone with no one to trust.

[@Moonwashedful]

It's funny how this is actually addressed in the interview: How people are weirdly possessive of him even though they didn't know him. And that as he's dead now it's up to the family to decide what they feel they're OK to have the world see of him.

Bears used to sleep in the woods around Wasington and Oreagon. If a psychotic person was to walk around the wilderness; with a .38 special; and shoot around the wood out of curiosity, maybe a baby cub-bear would find a reason to explore. At night in the woods; it's dark. If the cub-bear needs to touch base, then maybe night-wolves will explore. If there are night-wolves, then maybe a big brown teddy bear is closer than expected for an unweary psycho. Big brown teddy bears do not play at night. A big brown teddy bear has the power to smother the living breath out of a psychotic mental headcase; with a .38 special or no. Drug abuse and mental altercations through alternating taboos to be social norms does not transcribe into the wild, in the land of a big brown teddy bear. The wolves won't eat psychos, the big brown teddy bear won't eat human-psychos. The smother will exhaust a humans' capability of gasping out of shock, the last-breath of a psycho is a good nights sleep for a concerned parent. Teddy bears aren't harmless, they're protective and more spiritual than a devil-worshipper could ever be. Intruding into ones' domain with no precariousness can cause a sorry excuse to point fingers at, an alike-like Frankenstein monster without the science; the bear. Mass hysteria is wrong, mass confusion is wrong, believing in propaganda whole-heartedly too; confusingly; is wrong. Be good, rock hard softly but; surely; be careful always and safety first.

Yeah, so take any humans private tapes confessions, lies, truths, art, exaggerated genuine or sincere. It might be as abstract as a psychedelic journey, it might have clues to what this person was really trying to say, but we have no idea what was really going on inside. I like a lot of the movie, some of it I couldn't enjoy it because it was an invasion of this mans life. He didn't invite us in and I felt kind of dirty by the end of it. My single favorite part of the entire piece along with the music, was Kurt lying down on the set of heart-shaped box, with the voice-over interview segment with I believe David Fricke RS asking Kurt about the song title "I hate myself and want to die" He asks ,how literal was the meaning behind that song's title, and Kurt says as literal as a joke can be, nothing more than a joke. David then asks, well who is the joke being played on because I had to ask myself, this is either very intensely satirical, or there's some very dark stuff going on here. Kurt then replies with a very sly chuckle of "well exactly, it's everything and nothing all at the same time" Evan what I'm writing nothing more than an opinion and conjecture, same as this film as a whole. Kurt was allowed to troll us, he quite possibly could have been doing it the entire time. It just makes for one interesting human, cuz he happened to be an incredible songwriter lyricist musician all around. He had the final word, I will never know what it was. He left us unbelievable music! So I would suggest everyone go listen to the acoustic solo do re mi, tell me this guy didn't have so many sides, that there's no way we can figure him out completely. Especially not through the eyes of one man that's behind this movie. He made a piece of art, we can't take every bit of this as truth, and you really shouldn't!

[@chipchipperson101]

i like the interviews with him talking about how he didn't even like nirvana, how frances bean doesn't even like nirvana, that the cartoons and ramblings in writing were nothing special than any other angst teen. this guy is a good interview, but unfortunately panders to the demographic... in the case, vice hipsters.

A very deceptive film. They don't tell you when Kurt wrote these depressed sounding things in his journal, if at all. Could have been years before his death, early in his addiction -- but by not saying they imply it was at the end of his life. Courtney has been in possession of his journals and could easily added these things. Also, Kurt had no relationship with his mother prior to fame, but we're to believe she was giving him career advice? COME ON. If you want the truth, watch "Soaked in Bleach".
