Elliott Smith: Heaven Adores You (2015) [Blu-ray]

Heaven Adores You is an intimate, meditative inquiry into the life and music of Elliott Smith, a musician whose rise to prominence in the 1990s and early to 2000s was cut short by his untimely death at the age of 34 in 2003. By threading his music through the dense yet often isolating landscapes of the three major cities he lived in: Portland, New York & Los Angeles, Heaven Adores You presents a visual journey and an earnest review of the singer's prolific songwriting and the impact it continues to have on fans, friends, and fellow musicians.

In addition to the full film, the Blu-ray includes a bonus performance of "Heaven Adores You" by Aaron Espinoza (vocalist/guitarist of indie rock band Earlimart) and a full hour of extended interviews with many of the contributors to the main film.

This moving film leaves an indelible picture of a genuine talent. This is a rich view of an incredible and accomplished musician, a view that places music at the center of Elliott Smith's legacy. Heaven Adores You takes an affectionate but absorbing look at the work of a truly important artist.
