Ailey Reviews
Great early footage of Mr. Ailey - juxtaposed with a contemporary work in progress. Interviews with those who worked with and knew him were inspiring.
Good blend of performances recorded when the ballets were developed, and interviews with people who were part of his compny, and interviews that he did. It reflects Aileys lifetime (segregation, poverty, the AIDS epidemic).
this is a Moving and Timeless doc
Delightful and heartbreaking… he was wonderful and is truly missed.
Real clips from newsreels and those amazing performances. Unvarnished information about his challenges and illness.
There could have been more about how he learned to dance and where.
Great film. I do wish they could have gone into greater detail about how Ailey came to create some of greatest works.
