Poly Styrene: I Am a Cliché - 2021 - 6/10

Flawed documentary of the X-Ray Spex frontman.
Poly (Marianne Elliott) Styrene’s story, what there is of it, may be of interest to fans.
Not particularly in-depth, this skips lightly over troubled areas.
Why? Because the main writer / director is Styrene’s daughter.
Who delivers the bulk of narration in a listless monotone, as if she is bored out of her mind.
Shown above, the daughter talks about herself almost as much as she talks about Mom.
The doc feels like a family obligation, doing a duty.
Wish someone else had taken a crack at this.
