Brett Morgen

A high-octane documentary on David Bowie has delighted fans at the Cannes Film Festival which is having a vintage year for music lovers.

"Moonage Daydream" by American documentary maker Brett Morgen is a tour de force through the daring creativity of the pop icon who influenced rock music like few others.

An album of unreleased music by grunge icon Kurt Cobain will come out in November to accompany a documentary on the late Nirvana frontman, the director has said.

In researching ?Montage of Heck,? filmmaker Brett Morgen discovered more than 100 early cassettes recorded by Cobain, who grew up in the lumber town of Aberdeen, Washington.

Kurt Cobain is the focus of a new documentary that probes the life and untimely death of the Nirvana singer-guitarist.
     
It will be released in theaters next year and air exclusively on HBO, the network said Tuesday.
