Stevie Nicks: Through the Looking Glass is two hour documentary that mostly focuses on Fleetwood Mac. Like another reviewer stated there's nothing from her childhood. The story starts in the late '60s with Stevie and Lindsey Buckingham being in a group called "Fritz". There's interviews with producer Keith Olsen, who tells the story of how the Buckingham Nicks album was released and flopped, but Mick Fleetwood liked the sound of the album and was interested in getting Lindsey Buckingham into the band. Mr. Olsen let Mick know that Lindsey and Stevie were a package deal.
Over half of the documentary focuses on Fleetwood Mac. There's really nothing to groundbreaking here. The majority of the interview footage is archived footage. There's maybe 3-4 people giving current interviews. One guy doesn't really seem to have the best opinion of Stevie. I did find Rick Vito to be respectful and kind speaking about Stevie.
As a big music fan, I enjoyed this for what it is, but it could have been better. If they had interviewed more people like Mick Fleetwood and Stevie herself instead of using archived footage for most of the documentary. Stevie Nicks is a musical icon and deserves a proper documentary. This is on par with something you would see on Reelz or VH1. There's really not a lot of new information, but as a fan of both Stevie Nicks solo career and Fleetwood Mac this is a decent watch.
