Donald Clarke Irish Times Featuring effective, swampy music and an often-exasperated voice-over by the director, this rough-hewn picture appears beamed in from an era when rock stars were still allowed to be reprobates. Rated: 4/5 Oct 20, 2013 Full Review David Gritten Daily Telegraph (UK) Can such a lost soul ever be redeemed? Duane skilfully leaves it to the end to suggest an answer. This is eerily watchable ... Rated: 4/5 Oct 17, 2013 Full Review John Beifuss Commercial Appeal (Memphis, TN) This harrowing documentary might be described as 'Grey Gardens' on the highway to hell -- it's a portrait of an ornery rockabilly old-timer-on-the-edge that is as funny as it is frightening and as compassionate as it is shocking. Rated: 3.5/4 Dec 18, 2014 Full Review Jamie Russell Total Film Tragic yet hilarious, it's like watching Hunter S. Thompson's bucket list. Rated: 4/5 Oct 28, 2013 Full Review Read all reviews
