Maybe it is my age 58, or maybe because I am a Social Worker, but I was deeply moved by this production.
You have to move beyond the money and the fame to listen to the content. Gloria was deeply affected by all the tragedies in her life. You could see it in her eyes and the pregnant pauses she would take after some of the things she said. If that doesn't sway you then this should. Before any documentary and all through her life she recorded her true feelings in art. Many of her pictures speaks volumes of loneliness and sadness. As a social worker and therapist kids art speaks volumes as it tells of the true feelings they cannot put their words to. It is clear that Gloria has been painting her feelings from a young age on. The ghosts of people in the painting, the facelessness of people. Her paintings displayed a very sad and lonely life to only continue with the death of Cooper, her son and the absence of her older son. How can she talk about it when she may not know. It was clear his brother had no clue as he said "he has not spoke to any of us in years". I left he documentary terribly sad. Money does not bring happiness.
