Sting fans stay away! He and his mgr, Miles Copeland are arrogant turn offs.

Apted is a marvelous documentarian - he caught the spirit of rehearsals, and the personal, creative dynamics between gifted musicians. Unfortunately, he also captured Sting and his manager Miles Copeland during a variety of candid and staged interviews. The two of them have the worst personalities you'll ever see in a documentary - arrogant, pompous, pretentious and in Copeland's case, just down right mean spirited to the point where you feared for the man's emotional stability. It was a real eye opener to see that a supposedly 'spiritual' talent of Sting's stature would employ such a truly tacky, nasty piece of work such as Miles Copeland. If you love Sting's music as I do, you'll not rent this thing because you'll never listen to him the same way again.
