Preview: Patti Smith - Dream of Life (2008)

• Poster: C-

Review:

Bland and unoriginal. Simplistic and inelegant.

• Trailer: B-

Review:

While I'm sure Patti Smith has had a fascinating life as a pioneering female rock legend, the trailer itself doesn't look terribly exciting. However, I'm sure it will be far more fascinating than the similarly-styled Meat Loaf documentary.

Oscar Prospects:

So many documentaries in the running, I'm not sure this one will trigger Oscar voters' interests.

Release Date:

• July 18, 2008
