New York Dolls: A documentary

The movie New York Dolls turned into a horrid view by the end. To avoid any confusion, the movie was pretty good, even uplifting. Still, I did not know 'the Killer', the subject of the documentary, would pass away, just 22 days after the happy reunion. This long entertained idea of the Killer finally came true by Morissey, who was a follower of Dolls. This movie was noteworthy just for the fact that they managed to get together again and performed, after all those years and the all soured friendship between the Killer and David the vocal. They were miraculously put back together and made the noise that survived other members' death including Johnny, later the Heartbreaker which became rather infamous than anything else about Dolls . This event was enough miraculous and worth making a movie out of. All the more, the death of Killer reminds us of unpredictability of life. This might be whta I would call frightening or shocking. Just after 22 days, the Killer, the born again Mormon(!), died on Leukimia, 55 years old.
