I saw the film today and I just thought it was so... beautiful


He was really
so fueled by his audience, something that made him so unique and distinguished him from other artists. The way he cared about his fans, the earth, animals, the shows. It just really elevated everything he did in the film, and everywhere else obviously, and brought this, this... presence that really helped catapult him to superstardom and gave him such an allure and fascination, positive for some. He was such a blend of shocking talent and undeniable charisma. Unlike many, I do not think he was "gone" for a long time, after seeing the film I believe people were just "gone" from him and will still continue to be. The force that his performances brought, how compelled and moved I was, when I was seeing him in this film, is the same that is brought when I see his old performances, including the best of the best, even with the variations.
I did not cry during the film at all, because I was just really entertained and regaled by his performances, but I am scared of seeing it again. Now that I know what could have been, I think I'll really be heartbroken.
