Exploring 'Kurt & Courtney' 

Major respect to Kurt's Aunt. She was the only person who truly honored his death. Bless her.

Nick always has this look on his face that's a mix of 'are you fucking kidding me' and 'what am i doing here' and it's bliss

It is still a time capsule of he 90's .The grainy basement interviews are priceless.

Great documentary, I think you have missed the whole idea of how the film was MEANT to be made...

Why would going through her personal belongings matter when she sold and made millions from selling Kurt’s personal journals? Or for that matter when she was broke sell off whatever she had of his that she could. You criticize this documentary/movie yet it could have been better if Courtney hadn’t gone to extreme measures to halt any investigation into making this movie.

Yeah, well, you know, that's just, like, your opinion, man.

I'd say 'Kurt and Courtney' is more food for thought than anything else. It was definitely sloppy, but it has some interesting stuff in it. He got that El Duce interview where a really big claim is made -- and the guy died a few days later! He asked Dylan Carlson a valid question -- if Kurt really did try to kill himself in Rome, why did you, as his best friend, buy him a shotgun and leave it with him a few weeks later? And last but not least -- he stormed the stage at the ACLU to ask why Courtney was presenting an award for free speech, only to be booted off!

I was 20 when Kurt passed. I've seen K & C a coupla times. It's a hella 90s time capsule. The most interesting interviews are El Duce, Rozz Rezabek, and Kurt's aunt. The worst part of the movie is towards the end when they "chase after" Courtney. The movie did appear to fall apart once their funding did.

To be fair - if I had lost my husband in such a terrible way and I found out a movie like this was being made I’d step in legally too. It would be like a slap in the face.

I actually think this was executed well. Everyone can talk to Dave Grohl, Krist and other blatantly close people to Kurt for a documentary and get the same answers as everyone else. Nick interviewed the ones that were around Kurt for weird times in his life and knew things many didn’t.

Why don't women see the plastic surgery makes them look worse? The platypus lips and stretched cheeks? Gross.

That's Danny Goldberg jumping on stage when Nick confronted CL. The nanny at the end summarizes the entire conspiracy in one sentence, and 25 years later, she's still probably right.

Courtney threatening legal action is part of the narrative so it makes sense to mention it. And also the Earth video was more than likely in the film due to Dylan being promised the promo in exchange for his interview.

The woman with the dark red hair looks just like Courtney.

You have to appreciate Nick Brookfield and the rest of his work to understand all his narration; which is what I actually love about him. “The camera man started to have a panic attack” “the audio ran out” or when he went to interview Suge Knight and the camera man was filming the sky etc etc etc. (not exact quotes from this film and Tupac and biggie). I don’t know I love it it cracks me up and I love the eerie feeling that I’m always left with after his films. I love how Broomfield narrates and interjects himself in all his movies. It’s so unique and bizarre and how he includes narration of “fuck-ups”. It makes me lol I love it. This kind of movie is just so perfect and captures this little sliver of time. Respect your opinion but that’s how I look at it.

Courtney's ex was my favorite character

I definitely know A Courtney Love.

I've always found it hilarious how Courtney's dad says "keep on bad rappin' me, and I'll keep kickin' yer ass!!!" in his last spot in the film

FINALLY! An exploration into how a shotgun ends up resting on Kurt's chest after being fired, instead of spontaneously flying across the room the moment the trigger is pulled. Woohoo! Thank God Scott Green didn't gloss over any of that, after his intro about how conspiracy theories don't affect him one way or another...

Documentaries don't have plots. Jesus wept.

You said this is why we haven't heard of nick. Guess what we have heard of nick. His Aileen wurnos film was very very good. His Tupac was good as well

It's definitely suspicious that a guy says he was offered money to kill Kurt and then that hitter was killed later. Nick brings that to people's attention

Broomfield should have bought El Duce the beer he mentions at 9:30... who knows which way things could have gone!

To be fair to nick Broomfield you also go off on a complete tangent in this video with his mispronunciation of Tupac!

I respectfully disagree that this film was crap. He got a bombshell from el duce ( who was died 2 days later" ) he got an interview with Kurt's first girlfriend whom he wrote " about a girl " about. He asked Dylan a very good question. The interview with her ex boyfriend is classic & shed some light on courtney 's social climbing starting with a regional celebrity up to billy corgan & then kurt. So what he goes through her stuff , she has been exploring kurt for almost 30 years. He also was the first to put forth the courtney killed kurt theory that is pretty much an accepted fact. I know tom grant from the beginning was saying this but this film got a lot more traction. The stuff with his aunt is wonderful. The fact that courtney didnt sue says a lot. U dont buy her excuse that she is " beyond libel " if someone accuses you of murder &u Didnt do it u would be screaming mad. I think the guy started out doing a documentary on kurt & courtney & in doing so it led him to the theory that courtney had kurt killed. The fact that was not his agenda makes it interesting. Like why only a few years after kurts murder did courtney have mtv pull out of funding it ? Why does she want no part of it ? What's she hiding ? It also gave me through people who knew courtney a better idea of who she is. The ex boyfriend sharing that she was so desperate to be famous & meet michael stipe & which she did do which makes their friendship look staged on her end & not happenstance. Or that she zeroed in on this guy bc he had Local popularity & wanted to mold him into something for her benefit. Or the freind who said she is a Name dropper. Her list of " how to get famous " really makes clear why she targeted kurt. When they met she saw nirvana was going to be big & sent kurt gifts like a heart shaped box with presents. While kurt was rejecting her she went back to billy corgan , the most famous rock front man she snagged. Obviously kurt was her mark & billy was the back up plan & I'm sure she stalked kurt to have another " chance meeting " with him which finally landed her man. The fact that he rejected her for months after meeting once & she was determined to bag him.is very reminiscent of yoko when she stalked john after one meeting until she finally was successful.

The lists they show support the claim that the backpack list was a step by step how to leading up to his death.

You've missed the point. This film was fascinating. It's a documentary so the journey does not have to be neat. And the characters in it were extraordinary - they all seemed like they were out of a mocku-mentary, but this was definitely real lol. And Broomfield is the original Louis Theroux.

Your whining is way more annoying than this movie

This is over the top criticism. It's bullshit. This film is a seminal classic in its genre and Nick Broomfield is indeed well known - proof being that Scott Green is critiquing Nick's 20-year old documentary, NOT the other way around. Lol. Get real buddy, you're reaching for insults on this one. Don't quit your day job, hahaha

This makes me want to watch ‘Kurt & Courtney’ even more

I really appreciate seeing someone point out the fact that most of the people being interviewed don't really seem to be the most reliable sources. Glad I found your channel from a Courtney love search your stuff seems cool. Like screen prism. Love that essay style of video

That parody of Come As You Are at the end was a perfect closer, ngl

This was a great watch. Remember watching the film when it first came on Netflix and was baffled how I made it to the end.

The film may not have been the best, but he did bring the theory to the masses. Do your own homework and make up your own mind.

There is one thing though, who shoots themself after a hit of Heroin?

I'm so glad i found this xD

Creepy that the el duce guy actually died only three days after the doc

9:36 when the coversation gets awkward

this guy is way too hard on the way Nick directed his documentary, I think it's sloppy because at the time this case was sloppy, it was all over the place but there is alot of great evidence in this film

You judge them for going through Courtney's personal notes from years ago... SHE SOLD HER DEAD HUSBAND'S DIARIES AND MADE A BOOK OUT OF THEM!!!!

Every upload of yours makes me so happy

Your content is great just discovered your channel I'm glad I did been binge watching like Crazy

good job tearing apart that documentary. it does make you feel weird watching it. almost like your hanging there waiting for the interesting part to happen and it just never comes.

Making docs isn't easy. Especially when they're off the cuff. Yes, he was booming himself which is shite, and going into places asking random questions to people who have no clue by the sounds of it. But he did more, than other people doing nothing about the truth.

I knew kurt in 1992 we were childhood friends

Great video. Reminds me of YMS in a good way.

*TOOTHPACK*

The full title of the documentary actually reads, 'Kurt & Courtney According To Nick Broomfield'.

Great video! Thank you

For someone, like myself, who was born in 1999, I found this documentary to be very interesting as I've never heard about Kurt Cobain or Courtney Love before. It felt as if I was going along on an adventure, trying to figure out what happened, along with the documentarian Nick.

You are weirdly angry over an innocuous documentary that came out before cell phones.

Actually, one things that is extremely interesting about this documentary is that it shows El Duche speaking of CL offering him $50k to kill Kurt and it updates us a little ways in that he was found decapitated soon after their encounter. That right there makes it pretty damn interesting.

Why are you so animated, talking about this film, calm down!

To be fair Nick Broomfield can be very Hot and Cold,but his recent Whitney Houston documentary was excellent.

this video is sponsored by Courtney Love. By the the way, pretty sure Sasha Baron Cohen wasn't active at the time of this documentary.

new favourite channel btw

Thanks for uploading.

The song at the ending was great

Yea because, the plot totally changed days before it was due to start.. all the funding got cut literally days before hand! That’s why it changed..

I happen to like Nick Broomfields way of doing documentaries. Most of them do seem to start off one way but tend to lose funds before the end product which takes the film in a different direction but one that works just the same.

Dude 😆 Loving the channel and videos, really fucked with the song at the end, who was that?????? Plus did you have anything to do with the funny alternate lyrics, Mr. Green????

I'm watching it again just because this video makes me laugh so much

This is fucking hilarious for the Toopack cuts and the ending by themselves, let alone all the other stuff. Salute

Love the song at the end. Very clever.

I'm loving your channel dude, you deserve way more subs. Just saying we here in the UK think "Tupawk" is silly

o shit i need me that gouge away instrumental

Thanks for this :)

Amazing video

Listening to your voice and reasoning I'd look at my own shortcomings, problems or issues instead of trying to criticize others

I don't know what happened to Kurt Cobain but i would like to know what is wrong with his leg below his knee in this photo 3:58

Nick Broomfield aside, the comparison to Sacha Baron Cohen might be one of the most ignorant things I've ever heard lol. Thank goodness you don't have the same platform as them, because that wouldn't be good for anybody either.

Amazing dude

I disagree with you and wonder why you are so damn angry. And the one person in the film whose credibility is questionable is Amy, the girl in Portland. But you're wrong there, too: she did "know" both of them, just not as well as she claims. Plus, it took balls to walk up on the stage at the ACLU thing and question the organization for their giving Courtney the honor of speaking for them considering her history of threatening journalists who print opinions and ask questions she doesn't like. And you equate this to a Sacha Baron-Cohen prank. Plus, who would YOU interview about this topic? And, while yes, you can't compare heroin to methadone, believe it: addicts can build up an absolutely huge tolerance for a absolutely gigantic doses of heroin. Plus, why so damn angry?

I mean Courtney published Kurt’s journals.

I loved the come as you are parody😂

What docs have you made, Scott Green??? I'd love to check them out.

Does ant body know the name of that earth song??thanx...legionk

7:45 Scott, what the hell did you think Courtney did with Kurt's journals??? Come on man, sounds like you are on Courtney's payroll you hypocrite.

I appreciate your diplomatic approach to this film. Good stuff. 👍

I think you may have missed the point

Fun fact: this film wasn’t edited after it was filmed. It was just showed in the order it was filmed...

you deserve so much more exposure. you are awesome

One of my favorite documentaries.

I noticed I can't find the actual movie "all of a sudden" where can I buy it to support Scott Green--- looks like Corneys scared to me ! Lol

Does anyone knows the Name Song in 20:05 ?

Does anyone knows the Song Name in 20:01 ? Please

INFJ Kurt and Narcissistic Courtney, study these 2 characteristics - personality and when in tandem...

She lies so much.and she only knew him for a couple years

your content is great! Keep it up man.

This was hilarious and completely accurate. Respect sir!

You missed a big point of this documentary, my friend.

I actually feel sad for Kurt and Courtney.

Looks like you got your check too. Broomfield did a great job at the time a part from the heroin level in blood as later demonstrated by Grant in Soaked in bleach. Your critics are irrelevant.

this the funniest shit i ever did see i've been cry laughing for the last 10 minutes

I happen to like all he’s documentaries

The most underrated channel in RU-vid. Greeting from Mexico

Scott Green is G.O.A.T

great video

TEWPACK

This was a great documentary. I had the chance to see it fifteen years ago and sadly pissed me off. Sadly now u can’t find it anywhere… the best part is the interview with the nanny
