The masterpiece Prince documentary Netflix won’t let the public see.
About this episode
The best documentary filmmaker in America spent nearly five years of his life making a nine-hour masterpiece for Netflix.
It will never see the light of day.
After a nasty estate battle, the series will not be released. No one will ever see it.
In his first sit-down interview about this catastrophe, the filmmaker, Ezra Edelman seeks catharsis – if not closure – in the fight for truth and control over the life story of one of the biggest control freaks ever.
