Mark Eglinton nous raconte un destin hors norme. Celui d’un garçon boutonneux que la vie menaçait d’écraser : pauvreté, intégrisme religieux, divorce puis cancers de ses parents et fin tragique de son ami bassiste Cliff Burton… sans oublier l’alcoolisme… Hetfield s’en est sorti grâce à Metallica et ses cent millions d’albums vendus (cinquième place dans l’histoire des ventes). Pour la première fois, des personnalités majeures de l’histoire du groupe ont accepté de parler. Elles nous donnent leur version, de ses débuts jusqu’à son intronisation émouvante au Rock and Roll Hall of Fame en 2009. « Je voudrais remercier infiniment ma plus grande puissance {…} La musique est ma thérapie et j’ai besoin d’en faire. J’aimerais remercier ma femme Francesca pour m’avoir sauvé la vie… bien des fois. Mes enfants, vous trois qui êtes là. Merci pour m’avoir appris à aimer {… } Voilà une preuve vivante qu’il est possible de réaliser son rêve. »
