Featured review
Good Story, Poor Sound Engineering
Compelling documentary on the late singer song writer and humanitarian Harry Chapin, with interesting commentary from Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen, Pat Benatar and others.
However the project suffers from a lack of focus on presenting the music itself. Harry's music is only played at barely audible background levels that the narrators speak over, and the music volume does not increase, even when commentary pauses to focus on the music.
I learned what a great human being Harry Chapin was, and I will enjoy his music even more in the future.
However, when I watch a music focused documentary, I like to also hear the music itself. I would enjoy this production much more, if the music was played at the same volume as the commentators for at least some part of the presentation.
