I finally finished watching Living in the Material World. Many scenes made me laugh at first, and then towards the end, the mood changed. When Olivia was explaining the break-in that happened back in 1999, I thought I was watching a horror film. I was cringing the entire time. I also cried when they got to the scene where they talked about George’s death (and even John’s too!)
Overall though, I felt some things were missing, but other than that, I know Martin Scorsese and Olivia put so much effort into the documentary. I also have the book, which has some absolutely beautiful photography (most of the pictures are seen in the film).
