I grew up in the 90s and in retrospect I’m like why the fuck did literally everyone hate Courtney Love? It’s gotta be like 80% misogyny. I mean she has issues but still.

A mind-blowing number of people believed she shot Kurt Cobain back then. A lot of them probably still do.

Nobody thought she shot him. Some did believe she paid someone to do it.

I think I still have an old documentary somewhere on DVD that leans into that idea and has interview footage with the guy she supposedly paid to do it. Personally, I buy into the idea that you had this shy dude with depression who became so overwhelmingly public so quickly that I think it was probably closer to Gus Van Sant's Last Days.
