Nothing Compares: Sinéad O'Connor

...she differed from the modern world in one crucial respect: her refusal to play nice, to read the room – that sin which terrifies the social media age most of all.

...a quite engaging document. In it, one will find remarkable footage of Sinéad, new to London in 1985, in rehearsals with her early band.

...it would be cool as hell if Nothing Compares inspired even just one up-and-coming artist to stick it to the man the way Sinéad O’Connor did.

...powerful, heartening portrait of Sinead O’Connor as a heroic figure.

...as an intimate, often infuriating portrait of an artist and era, it's hard to argue with the raw power of the story on screen — and the timeliness of it too, no matter how long overdue.
