This is the trailer to a film by Gus Van Sant, which I'd never heard of. I am reading this pop cultural book on the suicides of famous people and it's something I'm probably gonna have to give a middling to bad review. There's just no point to it, other than to list facts about these people's suicides and to mistake nuttiness with creativity.
Anyway, one of the suicides is of course Kurt Cobain. This film, called Last Days is about...you got it...his last days. The reason I'm posting the trailer is because it's hilarious, it's basically the Cobain character wandering around in a dress, high and in a daze. The character has a different name, but it's Cobain.
I don't understand why anyone would want to make a film about someone's "Last Days," rather than trying to celebrate why that person was any good to begin with. Reducing someone's story to their suicide is pointless, esp. when it's an artist, b/c it reduces them into being like everyone else. And that's just what this PC culture wants--not to see people in their highest pursuits, but "like everyone else," thus reducing them to a stereotype.
The trailer is funny though, give it a look:
