You're Gonna Miss Me attempts to show you how impossible it is to pinpoint one person's demise to just one problem. Roky Erickson was the lead singer in the band 13th Floor Elevators, which is given major credit for the popularity of psychadelic rock. This documentary is shown primarily from the points of view of people who were closest to him. This leads the movie away from his music to talk more about his diagnosis of schizophrenia, and the effect this has on his family. The movie goes on to point fingers at how his family may have affected his illness. You're Gonna Miss Me cuts back and forth between his past and present, juxtaposing the tale tale of his illness with showing him in his current state (of disrepair). The ending does give you a bit of closure, but don't expect this movie to give you any answers.
