The song encapsulates the paradox of Phil Spector: a catchy and propulsive performance by the great girl group, the Crystals, with a message canada goose coats on sale so disturbing and inappropriate that it was soon removed from most radio playlists.

As such Spector produced classics as He Kissed Canada Goose Outlet Me and Lost That Lovin Feeling saturate the soundtrack of this film, one is reminded just how wonderful his musical legacy is, only to have one breath taken away by the megalomania he exhibits in the rare interview that director canada goose black friday sale Vikram Jayanti was able to obtain during his first uk canada goose trial for the murder of actress Lana Clarkson.

Spector might have recorded his legendary of Sound hits in mono, but Jayanti takes an unusual multitracked approach: The songs often play out over silent, banal footage of the trial while florid comments about the recordings by critic Mick Brown Canada Goose sale crawl across the bottom of uk canada goose outlet the screen. The juxtaposition almost cries out: All that great music Canada Goose Online has come to this?

What makes essential viewing for any Canada Goose Parka pop music fan and canada goose uk black friday any student of celebrity pathology cheap Canada Goose is the interview itself. Spector, despite his immodest comparisons of himself to Bach, da Vinci and Galileo, is surprisingly entertaining company, not simply the canada goose factory sale mad recluse with crazy hair that was his shocking image during the trials. He eminently canada goose clearance quotable, referring to his records as symphonies for the kids, or weighing in canada goose store on the Woody Allen Soon Yi Previn buy canada goose jacket scandal: could have introduced him to a lot of women.

His analysis of why Hitchcock is a better film than is priceless: is an film, the same way Brian Wilson revered Vibrations is an record. For Spector, editing is a cheat, a lazy shortcut compared to his painstakingly layered records.

Spector also discusses his collaborations with the Beatles his John Lennon impression is hilarious and insists that his production of the album It Be salvaged a mess, no matter what Paul McCartney says to the contrary.

Where falls short is in its impressionistic treatment of the first murder trial, which fails Canada Goose Coats On Sale to give the information one needs canada goose uk shop to know to decide whether justice truly was done. We see a silent montage of women apparently testifying to how Spector held guns to their heads but are never given the context. Spector attorney seems to make a good case that, based on the forensic evidence, Clarkson killed herself a defense that resulted in a hung jury.

The Canada Goose online second trial, which brought a guilty verdict and a sentence of 19 years to life, is summed up with one title card. One never learns what compelling evidence swayed the second jury. It frustrating not having more details about the night that ended Clarkson life and destroyed this funny, egotistical, brilliant, volatile, cloistered and dangerous man. But it a privilege to spend time with the influential artist behind the sensational tabloid headlines.

Know Him Is to Love Him, the title of his first hit at age canada goose coats 17, might never apply to the wacky convicted killer Phil Spector, but this movie helps one see him more clearly canada goose uk outlet.
