Everybody's Everything

Malick as an executive producer is so cool, a compelling documentary.

I reckon some won't even read my review and will go with not helpful, based on my (trademark) no pun intended subject line/headline. I did not know the musician - but I had heard about this documentary ... the buzz was there. A couple of friends had mentioned this. I reckon if you like his music - there is some ground to love what the documentary does ... what it uncovers about him and his life and his rise to fame ... and a few other things of course.

That all said, I can also see that some people would not be able to take anything from this ... and I am not saying you have to be Goth or love music (generally) ... but there could be some co-relation ... just be aware ... which most seem to are ... what you are about to watch.

I had heard of Lil Peep before but never bothered to listen to his music, but I thought I'd give this film a watch, glad I did and cried a lot throughout.

Very sad to watch as someone who nothing about Gus/Lil Peep; it showed his gentle human side that used drugs as a way of coping with life and the pressures of being a rap artist and trying to keep everyone happy. Very well filmed and I really enjoyed the montages of childhood video memories with his Grandpa's vocals over the top reading back the letters he'd send Gus. Very poiniant and beautiful to watch. Heartbreaking also, I cried a lot during this as it touched nerves for me.

I really recommend watching this and I have a new found respect for Gus, RIP..

Rip peep

Firstly, the other reviews which criticise peep for his drug use and face tattoos are great examples of the close-minded and judgemental people that Gus' mother, Liza, mentioned in his eulogy. Please, whoever it may be that is reading this, don't prematurely pass judgement on others, you never know what someone may be going through. But apart from that the movie is great. It is well directed, very informative and was a pleasure to watch. The runtime was a little daunting for me at first but watching it was never dull and so the length wasn't an issue for me.

First off, Gus was a light in this world. And the small minded people who judged him for his appearance were the type of the people who did help him. He was such a beautiful soul, and I know I didn't know him personally, but he gave himself to his music. And every real artist who writes their music. And pour their hearts in souls in it, leave pieces of themselves in the music. And through listening to their music and connecting with it, we get to know the artists. Gus was, like many people, hurting. And like all of us hurting souls he found vices to help forget and ease the pain. He left the world way way too soon. I knew he was going to go places farther then I could have imagined. And it breaks my heart when I listen to his music and remember, he isn't here anymore. I hope that wherever he is now, he is finally not hurting anymore. That's all I can wish for. Rip Gus. Lil Peep was one of the ones who understood.
