The big elephant in the room, the notable absence here is the issue of Stiggwood's and Travolta's homosexuality. The whole narrative eventually focuses exclusively on the duo as they rise to an incredible degree of wealth and fame and yet virtually nothing is mentioned about this side of their lives and what is said only frames Stigwwod as sad and lonely. It's hard to imagine that a gay man who is fullfilling all his sensual desires doesn't have some kind of fullfilling sex life. Gay lives matter and were this made by an LGBTQ person, then this omission regarding the curious queer pairing wouldn't have gone unmapped.
This faux-pas mirrors a similar situation with two documentatires which appeared rpughly at the same time on the notorious lawyer Roy Cohn. One virtually omitted whilst framing his gay sexuality as sad while the other exposed a vibrant gay life.
We need another documentary which looks at how Stigwood supported and interacted with the gay people and their culture he came into contact with. The qestion of the handling of Travolta's bi/homosexuality (a long time open secret in tinsle town and it's gossip rags, resulting in scandal for Travolta) and the cover up required due to his bankability as a straight sex symbol also requires an historical examination. Without these insights this film's biography remains suspect.
