Need some help identifying a Prince documentary

A few years ago I remember coming across this loosely put together documentary of Prince's career. I do not recall a title and I'm sure that a lot of the footage was of the same tried and true stuff we've all seen before. One segment stands out in memory though.

A guy was being interviewed (I'm fairly certain that it was a writer or critic) and he was talking about how he went down to this club to see Prince during the Dirty Mind tour. He mentioned the driving pulsating beat, how the crowd was responding and of course the fact that this elfin-like dude was onstage in his bikini briefs turning the place out. Then he mentions this young girl who was in close proximity to where he was standing. The girl was having something of a meltdown. She apparently couldn't process what she was experiencing and became overwrought, weeping and saying out loud, "he can't be real...he can't be real". Does anyone else remember this and if so, what was the footage from? Thanks

Hey, thanks for the effort but it wasn't either of these. The writer was sitting in his office at a desk when he was telling the story. I never forgot that part because I kinda understood where the girl was coming from. I had a somewhat similar experience when I saw Prince for the first time during the Triple Threat Tour with the Time and V6. It was not only my first Prince concert but my first concert of any kind. Talk about setting the bar high right?

I seem to recall that he was wearing some kind of black knit cap on his head.
