A Skin Too Few: The Days of Nick Drake (2002)
This film should be made available on VHS or DVD!

The film is really a bunch of relevant imagery and interviews put to Nick Drakes music. This, I think, was the best approach in tackling the simple and sad story of this ever growing in popularity singer/song-writer.
A Skin Too Few ends up looking like part documentary and part promotional video, with some whole songs put into context with footage of Cambridge for 'Five Leaves Left' period and the streets of London for 'Bryter Layter'.
This is not an in depth source of information, rather a gentle story - told mainly by the music - in a way that will only add to the mystery of why Nick Drakes music seems to genuinely touch so many people.
