Description:

"My whole struggle in life is my ambivalence," says singer-songwriter Sophie B. Hawkins at the beginning of this 1997 documentary. And for the next 90 minutes, we find out all about that--along with her passion, profanity, sensuality, volatility, and, yes, talent. Director Gigi Gaston's revealing, unusual film pulls no punches as it shows Hawkins both onstage and off, in videos and on tour, wrangling with her mother, rehashing her relationships, and on and on. It's a bit too much of a good thing, except when it comes to the music, of which there is way too little. Not a single complete performance is heard--not even "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover," which remains Hawkins's best-known song. This extremely in-depth interview is best reserved for hard-core Hawkins fans. --Sam Graham
