Because of the type of person Hutchence was, as soon as we first see him in the film you are instantly connected to the film - those big eyes that just make you feel warm, safe, and happy. Whatever the emotion you feel, it’s clear that his charm and impact on people will not wane. That’s why in 2019, a documentary about him still is a cause for interest - he's an icon who's still adored by millions. Even though the documentary isn’t perfect, I still highly recommend seeing it, whether to hear those songs again, remember the legend, or even to learn something new. Michael Hutchence’s story had a tragic ending, but it’s important to discover more about the person behind the headlines and learn the lesson once again about life in the public eye. - Chris dos Santos Read Chris' full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-mystify-michael-hutchence-inxs-lead-singer-still-touching-hearts-years-after-his-death Head to https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/sff for more Sydney Film Festival reviews.
