I'll be watching. It was well-reviewed at Cannes.

On a purely superficial note, why can't all trailers look as crisp as this one?? Some trailers look so pixelated they're almost blurry, but this one looks so sharp.

I didn't see much of Nico, she was on the debut album?

[sdpt]

Yes, but she doesn't get much credit for her part in the group

To be fair, outside of her voice as an add-on, she didn't help create the sound the band is famous for.

tbh I don't know anything about The Velvet Underground, but I love Todd Haynes, so I'll prob watch this

I love Todd Haynes, like The Velvet Underground and am interested in this time period of New York so I will undoubtedly be seeing this at some point.

Haynes is such a stan of that period leading into the 70s and beyond. He made the greatest rock fanfic film ever in my opinion with "Velvet Goldmine" and knew every bit of gossip and rumor. I know this doc is going to be good.

Rock fanfic film is the perfect description for Velvet Goldmine and I enjoy how mad it made Bowie hah

When I saw it was Todd Haynes I was all *insert Elmo fire.gif*
