Only reason why people let him film them is cuz hes funded by the BBC. Even though i have no experience in filming / documentaries i could easily do a better job than this guy if i were backed by the BBC. Kinda makes me sick how this mediocre man can make a living out of something he is so horrible at. Give someone else a chance, someone that actual knows of Kurt and his music.
shareAre you serious? I liked his commentary and easy going vibe. And at the end he had the balls to stand up and out Courtney and the whole sham of a Journalist integrity celebration - that was awesome.
shareActually he annoyed the hell out of me. After a while I couldn't stand how he would continue to interrupt people while he was interviewing them. Why ask someone a question for them to answer and then continually interrupt them while they are trying to answer them??!!
shareDo you think that the BBC would continue to fund him if he was rubbish?
The quest for a board without a troll goes on........
duh, thats all the BBC makes

So interviewers aren't allowed to get to a point? He had a documentary film to make and did a fine job not being led by his guests, save some things he couldn't help. If he wanted to host a talk show, he wouldn't be doing this. This isn't an interview on The View.

He was extremely annoying. He was the worst interviewer ever.
shareI thought he did an awesome job--and he had balls of brass at the ACLU thing.Courtney IS a meglomaniac slag and can't stand it when people stand up to her.This was an engrossing film and a lot of that was owed to Mr.Broomfield.

shareWow. Xenophobic and racist. You people display the brains of something I flushed away this morning.
Of course Americans are the planets foremost authorities on everything.
Thanks for dropping by WWII. You were late. But then, you probably couldn't find the borders of your own country.
If ignorance is bliss, then I'm in heaven now

I am from the U.S. My spouse, my friends, and I...LOVE the English! Do not pay attention to the small percentage of wankers (& trolls) that relish the sound of their own voice (& keyboard) as they argue without merit. It's rather embarrassing that this ignorant slice of Americana should be lumped in with the general population when considering our values as a whole.
While the xenophobic and racist undoubtably exist among us - and have the constitutional right to do so - most U.S. citizens are not like-minded. Unfortunately, the narcissistic sad-sacks (often uneducated) get so much media attention that decent people abroad then think we're mainly that way, or of the polar opposite....like the Kardashians. Hell, no. :)

^ Nice new interview w/him re: his SARAH PALIN doc, for those interested... funny how he drops nuts on her hometown of Wasilla.
when he did biggee and tupac film, many wouldn't talk to him. he's a hugely respected film maker who was cutting edge at the time.
MTV was the one that was funding this but due to Courtney Love threatening lawsuits on everyone and pulling all Nirvana music from MTV, they bailed. BBC had to.
Tom Grant's movie gives validation to Nick Broomfield and his movie.
lol, Broomfield is good man, but his style doesn't neccesarily involve heavily researching before hand, he rather discovers the story in the process of making the documentary. and rather the making of the documentary plays almost larger part than the subject. this style is quite an attractive approach especially for film makers like louis theroux or michael moore, but really broomfield champions it.
