Was it really suicide? Soaked in Bleach doesn’t give an answer because it’s well aware that for that it would be needed more investigation and access to more information, but it gives facts and statements by people who followed the case. Tom Grant, the private investigator hired by Courtney Love, gives facts (recorded conversations) that show a bunch of incoherencies and lies, but we are also presented with the opportunity to listen to some testimonials – an investigator/journalist, Rosemary Carroll (attorney and Frances Bean’s godmother), a forensic pathologist, the former chief of Seattle P.D., etc. This is a controversial film because it seeks the truth. Threats to theaters and blatant sabotage of ratings (IMDB) are some of the reactions. It’s extremely difficult for one to not be suspicious of the facts presented by the police and the media.
