Glam, Sweat & Tears

This is the story of Sweden's only glam rock band. But unlike the bigger bands, like Sweet etc, their story isn't a very exciting one. One keeps hoping that the film would break into a wow factor of a band that should have gotten more recognition. But it's slow and never catches on. Only some of the old men who were there that keeps repeating how good they were. But that does not impress me.

Still not a complete disaster of a documentary hence the 3 stars. I always enjoy seeing some archive clips, although they were few in this film.

When watching the end credits one can not help but to ask: why did they spend all this time making it about this band when Sweden has got so many more better bands to tell stories about?

SVT usually manages to deliver very good documentaries. Sad to say this is not one of them. The only winners of this film are the guys of the band that has a fun 43 min film about their 15 min of fame. To most other people there are better docs in the SVT Play archive.
