Well that's what I thought when I first saw the music videos. But then I figured that Warner Bros. didn't give him any money to work with, so he was just a man, doing what he can.

The documentary is done the same way as those videos, using the same footage over and over again to simulate continued action. It gets old. One part that I really like is when it looks like he is driving home and the ghost image of his childhood home is superimposed over the tree-lined route to his house in the present day and that sort of gets to me.

Makes me wonder why he didn't throw Flying Down Juniper into the documentary!
