Little Richard: I Am Everything
January 31st, 2023 / Kevin Ward
Sundance 2023
I always enjoy these documentaries. Little Richard was such a trailblazing icon; his story is incredibly fascinating. From Rock n Roll's birth to his struggles reconciling his queerness with his devout religious beliefs, it's an honest look at his life and career. It feels a bit muted compared to his larger-than-life personality, but what shines through is his unflinching love and acceptance of others.
