David Crosby: Remember My Name
This unflinching documentary surveys the life of David Crosby, from his rock-star glory days with the Byrds and CSN to his ’80s drug-addict lows to his unlikely late-career resurgence. The noticeably frail and occasionally prickly Crosby is thoroughly grilled by Cameron Crowe (who doesn’t hold back on the tough questions), and the film ends on a peculiarly sour note, with Crosby taking stock of his many regrets and burned bridges. It’s rare to see this type of honesty in these types of music docs, and Remember My Name is all the better for it.
