Little Richard: I Am Everything

Little Richard: I Am Everything (2023) is a documentary, music directed by Lisa Cortés rated 6.6/10.

The story of the black, gay origins of rock n' roll. It explodes the whitewashed canon of American pop music to reveal the innovator – the originator – Richard Penniman. Through a wealth of archive and performance that brings us into Richard's complicated inner world, the film unspools the icon's life story with all its switchbacks and contradictions.
