This documentary does not reveal a whole lot of new facts but I reckon there is not much more to tell about this sad man's life. The little that can be known is told and placed beautifully into atmospheric pictures underlined by Drake's wonderful music. This documentary is for sure an important part of the postmortem appreciation, the appreciation Drake was longing for so badly when he was alive.

We can see here an attempt to find out who was Nick Drake, which was not possible, since neither who knew him were able to answer that...

Considering this is pretty much the only thing available about Nick Drake, I enjoyed it. He remains as mysterious as his image.
