What'S Going On: The Life & Death Of? [DVD] [2008] (DVD) What's so special is that it's all told through Marvin Gaye's own words. These are from rare interviews we've never heard and they reveal amazing and disturbing aspects of his childhood, his Motown years, his abuse as a child, his marriage .. but above all it's the insights into his music making and his recordings that makes this such a revealing and extraordinary film. Marvin lays himself bare and we get to learn how his music and his silky and vulnerable voice reflect the inner turmoil of his life. Centerpiece, predictably, is 'What's Going On'. There's masses of great performance and some spinetingling stuff from home movies, especially that magic moment when he kisses his father - hey, how on earth did they find that footage! It's a moving moment of redemption after the brutal slaying by his father and the torment of his drug-ridden and ultimately tragic life. Wow! Some movie!
