Eat that Question: Frank Zappa in His Own Words

"Eat That Question: Frank Zappa In His Own Words pulls together interview, concert and behind-the-scenes footage to commemorate one of the rock era's most idiosyncratic star musicians."

"His rock music gets a decent airing, but you wish more of the man's perversity came through: his intimidating ego, the way he could exhaust his bandmates."

"Along the way, we are given an overview of Zappa's career, from his early albums with the Mothers of Invention through his not particularly accessible classical compositions."

"Okay, so if you aren't a Zappa fan - and that means most people - I can see you rolling your eyes like my wife. But maybe this documentary changes that a bit."

"Zappa made for a good celebrity if a rotten musician, and his takes on language and fame keep this doc sprightly and engaging."

"A compelling gateway documentary that should absorb both fans and novices alike."

"Obviously Eat That Question is a slam dunk for extant Zappa fans, but it’s bound to mint a few fresh converts as well. A fascinating look at an important artist, this is an essential piece of cinema."
