Jack Bond's engaging documentary about Adam Ant's comeback after years of mental health problems is helped immeasurably by its subject's rapport with Bond.
Those expecting Goody Two Shoes will leave disappointed, but – liberated from the need to please anybody but himself – the dandy of yore seems, if not happy, then content, wearing his bruises and battlescars as he once did warpaint.
An upbeat comeback story for an enduring legend of British pop.
The forceful positivity is suspect but the man we see is a tonic.
