Yes! Given the infamy of that documentary I was really expecting all sorts of shouting and drama, and there was none of that. There are times where Lindsey comes off unpleasantly to me, but none were in this film. His artistic passion was so obvious, and he so deeply cared about the project and really was bending over backwards to make it a success for everybody involved, it was impossible not to be endeared by him. We both found it all really touching. The whole band seems to operate in a very business-like fashion, rather than a "fun" one, and I guess that's what some Stevie fans react to.

An aside: The film also made me realize that I have no idea what a Mixer actually does. I have much to learn, I guess.
