dave d 01/30/2024 Sinead O'Connor was ahead of her time and Americans never understood her so it should be no surprise the Prince Estate didn't allow the film to use her titular song. There is so much more to the singer than this, but this film focuses on the early part of her career. This isn't a wide-ranging documentary. I wasn't a huge fan, but you'll have to be to like this. It is well made but there are no talking heads, just voices which is a touch distracting. Beautiful defiant eyes and an amazing voice. Non-conformists aren't the enemy, often they are the solution. Amazing America didn't appreciate debate or freedom of expression or speech. Shocking. Final Score: 7/10 See more JV H 08/07/2023 Nothing Compares is a beautifully edited, written and directed film. It has many insights and inspires understanding. I wish Sinead was still with us See more fergus o 07/29/2023 Showing a true artist; expressing herself through music. Ignoring public opinion, not opting for a shallow existence, not caring what the fickle media wrote about her.. the documentary shows her ahead of her time, a lasting eternal force of nature - a moving depiction of raw beautiful talent.

The world was a very different place 35 years ago, this documentary does an excellent job of reminding us just how hostile the world was toward a talented artist who rebelled against the status quo at every turn in the road. Occasionally heartbreaking it is not to be missed. See more PETER W 10/09/2022 I watched this film and then I read Sinead O'Connor's bio in Wikipedia. I found the film interesting as I didn't know a lot about her. She clearly has a great voice and she also had a well deserved reputation for speaking out which caused public opinion to turn on her. After reading the Wikipedia bio, I learned a lot that wasn't included in the film. For example, in recent years O'Connor revealed that she has a bi-polar condition, which I feel contributed to some of her rash behavior. She also has become a Muslim in recent years. There are several times during the film when she failed to explain her behavior and opinions which tended to be extreme. The Wikipedia bio helps to put all of this in perspective.
