From Rock Star To Rock Bottom... NEW YORK DOLL | An Emotional Reunion | Full Documentary HD

Fans of Searching For Sugar Man cannot miss this poignant and unexpectedly charming documentary, directed by Greg Whiteley. A recovering alcoholic and recently converted Mormon, mild-mannered Arthur Kane lives a life of quiet poverty in Los Angeles, working at the Family History Center library for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. No one would connect the shy 55-year-old in the suit and tie to Arthur "Killer" Kane, statuesque bass guitarist for the legendary '70s rock band, The New York Dolls. Arthur joined the New York Dolls in 1971 and helped form, in rocker Morrissey's words, one of the most raucous, notorious bands in musical history. However, drug abuse and bickering within the band led to a split in 1975, with Arthur hitting rock-bottom. The film follows Arthur's gentle, guileless life and his heartfelt prayer to reunite with his estranged bandmates—a wish surprisingly granted when former Smiths frontman and Dolls super-fan, Morrissey, curates the 2004 Meltdown Festival in London and asks the surviving original members to reform for a reunion show. The documentary captures the emotional and logistical hurdles of the reunion, juxtaposing Kane's humble, pious present with his glam-rock past, leading to a genuinely heartwarming, yet ultimately bittersweet, conclusion.
