The best documentaries offer a new perspective on something familiar or an introduction to something we know little about. In the case of “Diane Warren: Relentless,” a documentary chronicling the working and personal life, struggles and triumphs of the prolific songwriter and multiple Oscar-nominee, there’s an interesting mix of both. Warren has written over 400 songs, is the most Oscar-nominated songwriter with 16 nominations and worked with many major singers and bands like Beyonce, Lady Gaga, and Aerosmith, and yet has managed to remain elusive as a public figure.
“Diane Warren: Relentless” does the work of unfurling the songwriter’s life and work to give Warren her flowers.
