User reviews

Mary Young
9/10

The diverse selection of songs in the soundtrack, ranging from Cohen's iconic tunes to lesser-known gems, adds layers of richness and complexity to the film, mirroring the multifaceted nature of Cohen and Ihlen's bond. The music not only complements the narrative but also elevates it, evoking a powerful sense of nostalgia, love, and loss that resonates long after the film ends.

3/10

The overall composition of the soundtrack did not do justice to the rich tapestry of emotions present in the film. The music often felt disconnected from the on-screen events, missing the opportunity to truly enhance the viewer's experience and create a more immersive atmosphere.

Carol Garcia
4/10

The choice of songs in the documentary felt cliché and predictable, failing to enhance the storytelling or evoke a deeper connection with the audience. It felt like the music was simply added as background noise rather than a meaningful complement to the narrative.
