I watched a John Mellancamp documentary film last night on Netflix, Plain Spoken.

Johnny Cougar. He hated that.

He narrated about his life and purpose while a 2016 Chicago concert played. Occasionally the concert volume was bought up, sometimes he talked over a reduced concert volume and sometimes he remained silent while the music or dialog from the concert played. It played with subtitles and they wove the narration and lyrics into a near perfect matrix never stepping on one another.

This was one of the most provocative and compelling stories I have ever been influenced by. I won't even say why. Genius in form. I may have to think of a few other adjectives.

However, my take on this is not necessarily the popular one. Most critics dismissed or panned the movie. Maybe it struck a chord within me.
