Tina
Classic live footage and engaging interviews create a powerful film that celebrates icon Tina Turner's tumultuous career.
Director: Daniel Lindsay and T.J. Martin
Overview
Many will know the remarkable Tina Turner best from her global 1984 hit 'What's Love Got To Do With It?' and the 1993 movie named after it. The London-based production of that influential single and the triumphant comeback it set in motion comprises the fourth and most euphoric part of this documentary that breaks Turner's tumultuous career into five parts. Before that, the singer's record-breaking rise in the '60s and the lead-up to her subsequent split with Ike is documented via interviews, asides with famous pals such as Oprah Winfrey and archive live footage from the time. The mix of past and present viewpoints makes for an insightful look at the life of a legend.
