"Godfather of Soul" James
Brown led an idiosyncratic and sometimes troubled life, and his death
hasn't diminished the public fascination with him.
Enter a new documentary, Life on the Road with Mr. and Mrs. Brown,
featuring details about his controversial last marriage
to
Tomi Rae Hynie, in addition to the influence he's had on the generations
of musicians that have followed him.
Directed by Sheile Lussier and Camille Solari (who've previously worked
together on something called Hookers, Inc.), the film boasts an
impressive array of pop's most successful names, assembled to speak
about the hardest-working man in show business: Michael Jackson, Fergie,
hip-hop mogul Russell Simmons, metal band Scorpions, and lesbian electro
star Peaches round out the testimonials.
No word on whether this posthumous account will surface on big or small
screens, but it's sure to be funky.
