SLY LIVES! (aka The Burden of Black Genius)
A kind of boring documentary about someone who used to be famous, isnt it crazy that you can be a mega super star and a couple of years later no one will even know you existed.
Overall generic story—> man get fame—> man snorts coke—> ruins career for drugs.
