After bassist Jason Newsted quits the band in 2001, heavy metal superstars Metallica realize that they need an intervention.

Viewing Notes
Was thrilled that for whatever reason, the second run theater in Highland Park was screening this. After a wonderful sidewalk dinner w/Kevin and Erica, we walked over to see this. Decent doc but my attitude toward Metallica has really shifted in recent years. I don’t have a lot of sympathy for millionaires who can’t get along.
