1h 41mins

7/10

First time watch in the cinema

Inspiring – Emotional – Soulful

A documentary showcasing Luther Vandross’ life and career.

I went into this film knowing and loving some of Luther Vandross’ songs and left having discovered new songs of his to love and what a beautiful man was behind this music.

He had so much talent and perseverance to follow what he loved and knew he was capable of, with the backing and encouragement of those he loved and other respected artists. You can see how deeply those in his life cared for and loved him.

I came away with from this film thinking about the importance of being kind to one another. It seems so crazy for this incredibly talented man who was respected and appreciated for his art, still had people in the media seeking out a “flaw” to cling onto and focus on, rather than celebrating the beloved music he created.

Would watch again
