terrible... so disappointed.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

Morgan Freeman talks with the musicians between songs in language that gets them comfortable. You get a feeling of what it would be like to have a chance to get to know each artist. The conversations between songs are really relaxed and Morgan really shows he loves the music. The tone of the interviews usually conveys a little history, stories they like to tell and direct conversation to give us a behind the scenes insight. The whole film captures a down home feeling like sitting in on a jam session behind stage. The music is very well recorded and the camera work conveys a feeling of being in a small audience very close to the artists. If you like women who sing the blues this is a great documentary. Morgan Freeman adds a great level of insight in the way he interacts and the language he uses that really opens up the conversations, very well done.
