Ain't in It for My Health: A Film About Levon Helm

Huge fan of the music of the Band and Levon Helm in particular. Also very much enjoy documentaries of musicians as they lay out their influences, innovations, interactions, etc.

You'll get none of that here. Here you will get the presentation of an apparent drug addled simpleton. The contemporaries presented are also one dimensional vapids. I understand the man was going through medical problems but this was indulgent in the extreme.

Levon Helm had produced Electric Dirt and Dirt Farmer in close proximity to this film and great musical accomplishments prior as a solo artist and Band leader. There has to be more to that person than depicted here.
