Rated 07 Nov 2019

Lovingly crafted portrait of Kaufmanesque Sievey/Sidebottom provides an engaging and thorough overview of a life and career, though you are left with the feeling that friends and family are holding some essential truths back (possibly for reasons of taste) which would get to the heart of his sometimes strange dual life. The breadth and depth of the archival footage on display is impressive, though again, missing a potentially revealing discussion with Sievey himself.
