Margaret Brown’s 2005 documentary on the incomparable Townes Van Zandt. At once myth-making and humanizing, Be Here to Love Me is a brilliant portrait of a real-life troubadour, as creative as he was destructive. “There ain’t no dark til something shines.”

DC OGs Danny and Colin must be pumped on the music selection too. Fade to Black indeed.
But just for the record, we’re still backing Ishod’s SOTY campaign pretty hard.
