I've been watching this on repeat. I wish there would ever be a Stooges doc made with this amount of depth and style

At the end of the documentary they show who all of the people they interviewed were and how they were closely involved with the band and that art movement. To me it feels like a footnote to a much bigger and more interesting documentary that still needs to be made about The Factory, and the art scene of 60's New York City. Would love to here more about Basquiat, Bowie, Yoko, Kusama, Keith Haring, the Graffiti movement.

I love pretty much anything Todd Haynes directs, so not surprising that it's special like that. He's been making music-focus flicks since day one, so a Stooges doc is not beyond the realm!
a doc on the wider scene would be great too (i'm sure there's some good ones out there), but i think they were all pretty interested in doing something radically different. like many of us, i'm sure, lou reed was a free jazz dj in college.
