Overview
- Amy Berg’s film, It’s Never Over, Jeff Buckley, is now in theaters and draws on rare footage from Sin‑é, a tiny East Village cafe where Buckley first stood out.
- The documentary presents the 1997 drowning in Memphis as an accident and rejects rumors of suicide or drug use.
- Interviews with his mother, Mary Guibert, and former partners Rebecca Moore and Joan Wasser shape a portrait of a thoughtful and fragile artist.
- Reviewers note valuable new access, including a previously unheard voicemail, but criticize the heavy reliance on talking‑head commentary over letting performances play.
- The film revisits his four‑octave voice, formative club sets, and the outsized impact of his only studio album, Grace, which won deep respect even without major early sales.
