HBO Takes In-Depth Look Into The Life Of Tina Turner
Tina Turner has been nominated for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame for the second time. She has already been inducted as a member of Ike & Tina Turner. I can’t imagine that she won’t be going in again this year as a solo artist. Of course, Tina’s achievements in music are only part of her captivating story.
In a new HBO documentary entitled Tina, the iconic entertainer is giving fans an in-depth look into some of her most memorable performances. The singer also shares private stories from her difficult childhood as well as personal struggles throughout her life and career.
According to Rolling Stone, the film features interviews with Angela Bassett (who portrayed Tina in the film What’s Love Got To Do With It), journalist Kurt Loder (who co-wrote Turner’s 1986 autobiography, I, Tina), playwright Katori Hall (who wrote the biographical musical Tina), Oprah Winfrey, and Turner’s husband and former record executive, Erwin Bach.
If you’re familiar with any of Tina Turner’s history, then you know this film will be an emotional experience. Tina will debut on HBO on Saturday, March 27th. Here’s the first trailer:
