Soaked in Bleach reveals the events behind Kurt Cobain's death as seen through the eyes of Tom Grant, the private investigator that was hired by Courtney Love in 1994 to track down her missing husband Kurt Cobain only days before his deceased body was found at their Seattle home. Cobain's death was ruled a suicide by the police but doubts have circulated for twenty years as to the legitimacy of this ruling, especially due to the work of Mr. Grant, a former L.A. County Sheriff's detective, who did his own investigation and determined there was significant empirical and circumstantial evidence to conclude that foul play could very well have occurred. The film develops as a narrative mystery with cinematic re-creations, interviews with key experts and witnesses and the examination of official artifacts from the 1994 case.

I've seen both Montage of Heck, read the criticisms, and also watched Soaked in Bleach.
You should definitely watch Soaked in Bleach!!!
It's also fascinating how hard the efforts to squash this movie are - that's actually what got my attention! I'd previously seen Kurt and courtney and thought this was just a rehash - Kurt and Courntey is kind of shit so I didn't care much. Turns out this is not kind of shit, it's kind of great.
For example: the guy who was chief of police in Seattle during the 90's is outright in the film advocating to re-open the investigation, saying they fucking blew it.

I wasn't sure what to expect from it but it was enlightening and certainly had some damning facts that would be hard to dispute. I haven't seen Kurt and Courtney but it sounds like I'm not missing out on much anyway. I think Courtney certainly made a mistake in hiring that private investigator to track Kurt down.
