“Diane Warren: Relentless” comes through in presenting its subject as a complicated, vulnerable, cocky and almost counterintuitively charming figure you just want to hang around with a lot more.

Those hoping to walk away with a greater understanding of her prolific output commensurate with her success will do so empty-handed, though not without having been entertained.

She’s so utterly herself in director Bess Kargman’s film, in which she is frequently depicted giving the world a one-finger salute, that I couldn’t help finding myself turning into a fan. Go Diane!

If you’ve been affected by the endless stream of Warren-penned hits either with the music directly or the infamous movies that they may have been written for which, is highly likely this is a must watch.
