    a chapter of Madonna's life told by her then close friends

    Honest, interesting and extremely well put together tale of how life progresses and people end up writing each other life stories

    not too bad

    Wow! the actress (samantha nicole dunn) looks more like madonna than madonna! a quite enjoyable biography of her early years, and her love affair with chris martin lookalike (dan gilroy, played by calvin knie) amongst many other things . . .

    Lots of reenactments with actors

    This was categorized as a documentary on Hulu. And it kind of is. It's a documentary in that it has interview with people who knew Madonna in her younger years. It's mostly reenactment footage there. There is some actual footage and photos of Madonna in her younger years, but not as much as a typical documentary. Madonna fans will still appreciate it though.

    Intriguing Details Buried In A Film That Is Way Too Long

    The premise behind this documentary / reenactment is fantastic: Interviews with the musicians that were a part of Madonna's rise to fame. Stories aren't often told of Madonna's early years with the Breakfast Club and Emmy. And while there were many interesting tales they get bogged down with too many interviews and reenactments.

    Loved the Film!

    For anyone saying that this film is "bad" obviously is clueless to the volume of details that were included in every scene. The photo recreations, the exact places and buildings that she was in to include actual items she held herself when she was yet undiscovered. I loved the film. It's a documentary and is t meant to be an epic scripted movie. It really is good and I thought the casting was perfect. It will sell millions around the world. Thank you for showing us an era of Madonna we have always been curious about that has been ignored until now. M fans will enjoy it very much!
