INCE KURT COBAIN committed suicide
on April 5, 1994, Hollywood studios
have released rock biopics based on the
lives of Ray Charles, Johnny Cash, Ian
Curtis, Notorious B.I.G. and Bobby Darin — and yet not Cobain. Save for Last
Days, Gus Van Sant’s 2005 film about a
singer not unlike Cobain (played by
Kurt Cobain
performs with
Nirvana at a
taping of MTV
Unplugged on
Nov. 18, 1993.
