00:00:51,415 --> 00:00:54,779
-
2
00:01:02,525 --> 00:01:03,590
Ree?
3
00:01:05,132 --> 00:01:06,494
Ree?
4
00:01:07,596 --> 00:01:08,760
Wake up, baby.
5
00:01:14,537 --> 00:01:16,273
They wanna hear you sing.
6
00:01:19,146 --> 00:01:19,771
You wanna sing?
7
00:01:20,708 --> 00:01:21,641
Yes, please.
8
00:01:22,545 --> 00:01:23,742
All right.
9
00:01:35,459 --> 00:01:37,756
Clarence,
Ella's looking for you.
10
00:01:38,693 --> 00:01:40,165
Wait here, Ree.
11
00:01:40,200 --> 00:01:42,299
-I'll be right back.
-Okay.
12
00:01:42,334 --> 00:01:43,465
They butchered
my essay.
13
00:01:43,500 --> 00:01:44,433
Took all the politics out.
14
00:01:44,468 --> 00:01:45,797
Can you believe that?
15
00:01:45,832 --> 00:01:48,272
Communism is absolutely
for the Negro.
16
00:01:48,307 --> 00:01:49,834
How else are we gonna have
everything we ever wanted?
17
00:01:49,869 --> 00:01:51,143
Now, how does
a man with one eye
18
00:01:51,178 --> 00:01:52,144
play like he has four hands?
19
00:01:53,312 --> 00:01:54,608
You been practicing?
20
00:01:54,643 --> 00:01:56,247
Yes, Mr. Tatum.
21
00:01:56,282 --> 00:01:57,809
She could hit
three octaves easy.
22
00:01:57,844 --> 00:02:00,680
You know, you the finest
looking cat here, right?
23
00:02:00,715 --> 00:02:02,550
Nigga, I know that.
24
00:02:02,585 --> 00:02:03,815
What else you got?
25
00:02:08,261 --> 00:02:09,821
Hey, Ree.
26
00:02:09,856 --> 00:02:11,328
Hey, Uncle Sam.
27
00:02:11,363 --> 00:02:13,363
No more segregated
clubs for me.
28
00:02:13,398 --> 00:02:14,826
I'm not walking through
no one's kitchen
29
00:02:14,861 --> 00:02:16,861
to get to the stage.
30
00:02:16,896 --> 00:02:20,337
I said to them,
"I'm so happy to be
performing in England,
31
00:02:20,372 --> 00:02:21,569
but just remember
32
00:02:21,604 --> 00:02:23,241
there's only one Heaven,
one Earth,
33
00:02:23,276 --> 00:02:24,836
and one queen.
34
00:02:24,871 --> 00:02:26,904
Me. Dinah Washington."
35
00:02:28,743 --> 00:02:30,710
"That Elizabeth on y'alls
throne is an imposter."
36
00:02:30,745 --> 00:02:32,745
-You didn't.
-Oh, yes, I did.
37
00:02:32,780 --> 00:02:35,352
-And I made 'em bow before me.
-
38
00:02:35,387 --> 00:02:37,420
Well, look out, y'all.
39
00:02:38,225 --> 00:02:39,686
The entertainer is here.
40
00:02:40,227 --> 00:02:41,622
Hi.
41
00:02:41,657 --> 00:02:43,360
He said he wanted
a race novel.
42
00:02:43,395 --> 00:02:45,791
Sure, he desegregated
the army.
43
00:02:45,826 --> 00:02:47,298
But he didn't do
a damn thing after that.
44
00:02:47,333 --> 00:02:49,861
-Hi, Aunt Ella. Uncle Duke.
-Hey.
45
00:02:49,896 --> 00:02:51,599
You ready, Ree?
Come on.
46
00:02:57,772 --> 00:03:00,377
Everyone.
47
00:03:00,412 --> 00:03:02,643
Everyone.
48
00:03:02,678 --> 00:03:05,877
For those of you visiting
my home for the first time,
49
00:03:06,814 --> 00:03:10,552
this is my daughter, Aretha.
50
00:03:10,587 --> 00:03:13,291
She'd like to sing
a little something for you.
51
00:03:13,326 --> 00:03:14,457
What would you
like to sing, Ree?
52
00:03:15,988 --> 00:03:17,922
How old is she?
53
00:03:17,957 --> 00:03:19,693
She's 10,
54
00:03:19,728 --> 00:03:21,926
but her voice's
going on 30, honey.
55
00:03:21,961 --> 00:03:24,566
Aretha would
like to perform
56
00:03:24,601 --> 00:03:26,634
My Baby Likes to Bebop.
57
00:03:26,933 --> 00:03:28,471
Damn!
58
00:03:28,506 --> 00:03:29,934
I was gonna record that
on my next album.
59
00:03:31,674 --> 00:03:33,278
Can we do a duet?
60
00:03:43,422 --> 00:03:46,654
'Cause my baby likes to bebop
61
00:03:55,830 --> 00:03:56,829
Sing, baby!
62
00:04:08,711 --> 00:04:12,416
Do a dance and a flip-flop
63
00:04:12,451 --> 00:04:15,320
Like the hepcats do
64
00:04:15,355 --> 00:04:18,554
"My baby likes to bebop"
65
00:04:43,548 --> 00:04:45,042
Back to bed with you.
66
00:04:56,495 --> 00:04:59,859
Go marching in
67
00:04:59,894 --> 00:05:02,664
Those white folks don't know
what to do with her.
68
00:05:02,699 --> 00:05:04,369
Sock it to 'em, Clara!
69
00:05:04,404 --> 00:05:05,535
Yeah, Grandma!
70
00:05:05,570 --> 00:05:08,406
Sock it to 'em!
Sock it to 'em!
71
00:05:16,911 --> 00:05:17,844
Momma's here!
72
00:05:22,719 --> 00:05:23,883
Momma!
-
73
00:05:26,052 --> 00:05:29,020
God! Babe,
I missed you so much.
74
00:05:29,957 --> 00:05:31,396
Hi! Momma!
75
00:05:33,092 --> 00:05:34,498
Mommy!
76
00:05:35,963 --> 00:05:37,336
My babies!
77
00:05:37,998 --> 00:05:39,866
My precious!
78
00:05:50,846 --> 00:05:52,384
Come on, let's go! Let's go!
79
00:05:52,419 --> 00:05:53,649
-Let's go!
- Bye, Grandma!
80
00:05:53,684 --> 00:05:54,815
Come on, baby!
81
00:05:54,850 --> 00:05:55,849
Let's go in the car!
82
00:05:59,855 --> 00:06:03,956
That way
83
00:06:03,991 --> 00:06:07,663
In the morning sun
84
00:06:07,698 --> 00:06:11,898
The night is new
85
00:06:34,021 --> 00:06:35,559
Sing another one, Momma!
86
00:06:35,594 --> 00:06:37,759
Oh, Ree,
that's the third song now.
87
00:06:37,794 --> 00:06:39,629
Please?
88
00:06:39,664 --> 00:06:40,960
No, I want to talk.
89
00:06:40,995 --> 00:06:42,797
Please?
-Oh, God.
90
00:06:43,503 --> 00:06:44,898
Oh, all right.
91
00:06:45,868 --> 00:06:48,440
What if I sing-talk, hmm?
92
00:07:03,820 --> 00:07:04,918
We praising
the Lord, Momma!
93
00:07:06,658 --> 00:07:08,086
-
94
00:07:08,121 --> 00:07:09,220
-
95
00:07:09,256 --> 00:07:10,990
-
96
00:07:21,541 --> 00:07:23,871
You still singing
at the Saturday night parties?
97
00:07:23,906 --> 00:07:25,037
Yeah.
98
00:07:25,072 --> 00:07:26,907
Mmm. Don't say "yeah".
99
00:07:26,942 --> 00:07:29,811
"Yeah" is common. Say "yes".
100
00:07:29,846 --> 00:07:30,944
Yes.
101
00:07:31,584 --> 00:07:32,946
You enjoy it?
102
00:07:32,981 --> 00:07:34,783
-Yeah. Yes.
-Uh-uh.
103
00:07:36,248 --> 00:07:39,018
Look at me, Ree.
104
00:07:39,053 --> 00:07:41,691
If you ever don't
want to sing, don't.
105
00:07:41,726 --> 00:07:42,890
I love singing.
106
00:07:42,925 --> 00:07:44,595
No, I know. I know.
107
00:07:46,830 --> 00:07:49,633
Your daddy doesn't
own your voice, Ree.
108
00:07:49,668 --> 00:07:51,998
Nobody does but God.
109
00:07:53,067 --> 00:07:55,870
And you don't ever
have to fear any man.
110
00:07:57,236 --> 00:07:58,741
You understand?
111
00:08:01,075 --> 00:08:03,548
You are so worthy, Ree.
112
00:08:03,583 --> 00:08:05,880
Don't you ever let anybody
tell you otherwise.
113
00:08:06,817 --> 00:08:08,047
Yes, Momma.
114
00:08:12,724 --> 00:08:14,086
Oh, Ree, don't cry.
115
00:08:14,121 --> 00:08:15,923
Come on, I'll see you
for your birthday.
116
00:08:15,958 --> 00:08:17,056
Three weeks is a long time.
117
00:08:17,091 --> 00:08:19,861
I know, but I am
always with you.
118
00:08:19,896 --> 00:08:21,500
Even when I'm not there.
119
00:08:21,865 --> 00:08:23,029
Okay?
120
00:08:28,839 --> 00:08:30,036
Go.
121
00:08:42,985 --> 00:08:45,557
Ree, get back here!
122
00:08:48,056 --> 00:08:49,121
Ree!
123
00:08:52,258 --> 00:08:53,092
Goodbye!
124
00:08:57,670 --> 00:08:59,065
Bye, Momma!
125
00:09:03,973 --> 00:09:05,104
We're marching
Marching up to Zion
126
00:09:08,747 --> 00:09:09,680
Ree?
127
00:09:10,078 --> 00:09:11,110
Ree?
128
00:09:13,081 --> 00:09:15,312
I'm the oldest. I should be
in the front of the line.
129
00:09:15,347 --> 00:09:16,115
Hush.
130
00:09:18,955 --> 00:09:20,823
We have nothing
to fear, church.
131
00:09:22,288 --> 00:09:25,762
'Cause what is the white man
compared to God?
132
00:09:29,229 --> 00:09:32,164
What is any law, any injustice
133
00:09:32,199 --> 00:09:34,870
compared to the power
of our Lord?
134
00:09:38,370 --> 00:09:42,845
'Cause He will deliver us
from the den like Daniel.
135
00:09:44,178 --> 00:09:47,311
And Daniel went
into that lion's den.
136
00:09:48,248 --> 00:09:51,689
Daniel went into
that lion's den.
137
00:09:51,724 --> 00:09:53,889
-Yes, Jesus!
-Not yelling,
138
00:09:53,924 --> 00:09:55,693
nor fussing.
139
00:09:55,728 --> 00:09:56,892
Not crying!
140
00:09:56,927 --> 00:09:58,894
-Not complaining!
-No!
141
00:09:58,929 --> 00:10:00,324
Praising the Lord!
142
00:10:00,359 --> 00:10:02,832
-Yeah!
-'Cause he knew
143
00:10:02,867 --> 00:10:04,636
the Lord was with him.
144
00:10:04,671 --> 00:10:07,199
He feared no man!
145
00:10:07,234 --> 00:10:09,036
Can you hear me, church?
146
00:10:09,071 --> 00:10:10,774
I wish somebody
would pray with me
147
00:10:10,809 --> 00:10:12,776
-'cause He will!
-He will!
148
00:10:12,811 --> 00:10:14,239
He will!
-He will!
149
00:10:14,274 --> 00:10:17,374
He will shut the jaws
of segregation,
150
00:10:17,409 --> 00:10:19,178
and any man, person,
151
00:10:19,213 --> 00:10:21,686
or institution that would dare
152
00:10:21,721 --> 00:10:23,655
stand against us.
153
00:10:23,690 --> 00:10:26,350
He took us from slavery,
154
00:10:26,385 --> 00:10:29,727
he took us from
the valley of reconstruction.
155
00:10:29,762 --> 00:10:31,729
- Freedom!
156
00:10:31,764 --> 00:10:33,390
-Freedom!
- Freedom!
157
00:10:33,425 --> 00:10:34,831
Freedom!
158
00:10:34,866 --> 00:10:36,195
-Freedom!
- Freedom!
159
00:10:36,230 --> 00:10:38,967
Freedom now!
Praise Him! Praise Him!
160
00:10:39,002 --> 00:10:41,772
-Preach, Daddy, preach!
- Hallelujah.
161
00:10:50,717 --> 00:10:52,750
Hey? Ree?
162
00:10:52,785 --> 00:10:54,818
Ree!
163
00:10:54,853 --> 00:10:56,721
How come
you're not singing tonight?
164
00:10:57,724 --> 00:10:59,317
Daddy didn't ask me to.
165
00:11:00,892 --> 00:11:02,793
What's your doll's name?
166
00:11:06,392 --> 00:11:07,963
Dee.
167
00:11:07,998 --> 00:11:10,669
Mmm. That's a pretty name.
168
00:11:13,036 --> 00:11:15,036
You're pretty, too.
169
00:11:15,071 --> 00:11:16,433
What's your boyfriend's name?
170
00:11:16,468 --> 00:11:18,941
I don't have
a boyfriend.
171
00:11:19,878 --> 00:11:21,845
I can be your boyfriend.
172
00:11:21,880 --> 00:11:23,209
Would you like that?
173
00:11:24,410 --> 00:11:26,212
We'll have fun.
174
00:11:58,378 --> 00:11:59,982
Come on, Ree!
175
00:12:01,920 --> 00:12:03,150
I don't want to.
176
00:12:03,185 --> 00:12:04,789
Ree, I will beat your behind.
177
00:12:10,258 --> 00:12:11,961
What are you doing?
178
00:12:11,996 --> 00:12:13,424
I don't care if you beat me.
179
00:12:13,459 --> 00:12:15,228
I don't want my hair done.
180
00:12:15,263 --> 00:12:17,032
Don't you wanna look pretty
for church tomorrow?
181
00:12:17,067 --> 00:12:18,902
No!
182
00:12:18,937 --> 00:12:20,266
Y'all wait in the living room.
183
00:12:21,203 --> 00:12:23,170
Come on.
184
00:12:23,205 --> 00:12:24,435
Don't sweat out all my work.
185
00:12:24,470 --> 00:12:26,140
That's gotta last you
all week!
186
00:12:28,540 --> 00:12:30,012
Sit down.
187
00:12:35,382 --> 00:12:37,151
You wanna tell me
what's wrong?
188
00:12:39,353 --> 00:12:40,418
Ree-Ree?
189
00:12:47,130 --> 00:12:49,933
I know you don't
wanna tell me,
190
00:12:49,968 --> 00:12:53,101
but you can always
tell the Lord, Ree.
191
00:12:53,136 --> 00:12:55,301
He loves you, no matter what.
192
00:13:28,534 --> 00:13:31,304
You're supposed
to be in bed, Ree.
193
00:13:31,339 --> 00:13:35,913
my every burden
194
00:13:35,948 --> 00:13:37,079
Come, come and join me
for a while.
195
00:13:46,926 --> 00:13:51,489
Whoa, yes
196
00:13:53,031 --> 00:13:54,360
What if I wasn't here?
197
00:13:58,036 --> 00:14:00,531
What do you mean by that?
198
00:14:03,173 --> 00:14:06,306
-I don't know.
-
199
00:14:11,984 --> 00:14:13,478
Hello?
200
00:14:13,513 --> 00:14:14,985
See how nicely
their voices are blending?
201
00:14:16,087 --> 00:14:18,120
They let Sam
take the proper lead.
202
00:14:19,618 --> 00:14:24,291
Too many members of our choir
try to stand out
203
00:14:24,326 --> 00:14:25,457
instead of supporting
the soloist.
204
00:14:25,492 --> 00:14:26,458
Clarence?
205
00:14:28,363 --> 00:14:30,066
Come to the phone.
206
00:14:32,103 --> 00:14:34,466
-Play this next.
-Okay.
207
00:14:37,009 --> 00:14:38,305
Right back.
208
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:45,510
Barbara's dead.
- How?
209
00:14:45,545 --> 00:14:47,479
Heart attack.
210
00:14:52,090 --> 00:14:54,453
I'll tell them
in the morning, Mama.
211
00:14:54,488 --> 00:14:57,324
No. No, you cannot
wait till tomorrow
212
00:14:57,359 --> 00:15:00,327
to tell them
their momma is dead.
213
00:15:00,362 --> 00:15:01,559
-
214
00:15:06,104 --> 00:15:07,367
No. No.
215
00:15:09,008 --> 00:15:10,073
Ree?
216
00:15:34,297 --> 00:15:35,494
Ree?
217
00:15:46,672 --> 00:15:48,342
I'm sorry, baby.
218
00:15:50,280 --> 00:15:52,511
Let's go inside.
219
00:16:14,073 --> 00:16:19,439
dear Ree-Ree
220
00:16:25,711 --> 00:16:27,513
Come on now, Ree.
221
00:16:31,189 --> 00:16:33,024
She just miss her momma.
222
00:16:33,059 --> 00:16:34,355
They all missin' her,
223
00:16:34,786 --> 00:16:37,193
but how long
she gonna keep silent?
224
00:16:37,228 --> 00:16:38,623
Goin' on three weeks.
She gotta...
225
00:16:38,658 --> 00:16:41,527
She just needs a little time.
That's all.
226
00:16:41,727 --> 00:16:43,067
Ree?
227
00:16:44,466 --> 00:16:48,732
Miss Clara made you
this beautiful cake,
228
00:16:48,767 --> 00:16:50,668
and Reverend James
came especially for you.
229
00:16:51,374 --> 00:16:53,209
What do you say, Ree?
230
00:16:56,610 --> 00:16:58,049
Do you say, "Thank you"?
231
00:16:59,481 --> 00:17:00,579
-Do you say something?
-
232
00:17:02,286 --> 00:17:03,714
Make a wish, Ree.
233
00:17:07,621 --> 00:17:08,587
I can't do this.
234
00:17:11,427 --> 00:17:14,395
Come on.
- Momma. Momma.
235
00:17:14,430 --> 00:17:15,561
Come on, baby. It's all right.
236
00:17:15,596 --> 00:17:16,562
-Momma. Momma.
-It's all right.
237
00:17:16,597 --> 00:17:18,564
-Come on, baby.
-Momma.
238
00:17:18,599 --> 00:17:22,469
-
239
00:17:29,775 --> 00:17:31,544
Why are you hiding over there?
240
00:17:31,579 --> 00:17:33,645
Come on over here
and get your lesson.
241
00:17:34,681 --> 00:17:36,681
You know this one.
242
00:17:37,816 --> 00:17:40,355
Tell you what,
I'll be the choir
243
00:17:40,390 --> 00:17:41,719
and you play the lead.
244
00:17:45,428 --> 00:17:46,823
Three, four...
245
00:17:58,804 --> 00:18:01,541
Ree is helping me
with my arrangement.
246
00:18:01,576 --> 00:18:02,740
I see.
247
00:18:03,875 --> 00:18:05,776
Has she spoken to you?
248
00:18:05,811 --> 00:18:08,614
that far
249
00:18:12,422 --> 00:18:16,589
Do you think you can
stay silent forever, Ree? Hmm?
250
00:18:21,695 --> 00:18:22,760
Look at me.
251
00:18:26,832 --> 00:18:29,536
We must honor the gifts
that God has given us, Ree.
252
00:18:31,177 --> 00:18:34,772
You will be singing
in church tomorrow.
253
00:18:36,908 --> 00:18:39,381
James, can you prepare her?
254
00:18:40,417 --> 00:18:42,318
Yes, sir.
255
00:18:42,353 --> 00:18:43,583
Thank you.
256
00:19:07,543 --> 00:19:09,807
Don't let nothin' come between
you and your music, Ree.
257
00:19:13,384 --> 00:19:15,681
Music will save your life.
258
00:19:21,623 --> 00:19:23,656
God holds our hand.
259
00:19:23,691 --> 00:19:24,723
Yeah!
-Through Him,
260
00:19:24,758 --> 00:19:27,198
we can do anything!
261
00:19:27,233 --> 00:19:28,595
He's a catcher!
262
00:19:28,630 --> 00:19:30,663
A dream catcher!
263
00:19:30,698 --> 00:19:32,335
Amen!
264
00:19:32,370 --> 00:19:33,501
Amen.
- Amen.
265
00:19:35,439 --> 00:19:37,241
And now,
266
00:19:37,276 --> 00:19:40,640
my daughter Aretha
will bless us with song.
267
00:21:03,021 --> 00:21:08,497
-
guilty stains
268
00:21:11,062 --> 00:21:17,341
Lose all their
guilty stains
-
269
00:21:17,376 --> 00:21:20,608
-
270
00:21:40,564 --> 00:21:42,795
-
271
00:21:42,830 --> 00:21:44,599
-
272
00:21:51,839 --> 00:21:53,839
-
273
00:21:57,812 --> 00:22:02,980
running through the flood?
274
00:22:17,997 --> 00:22:20,503
I wonder,
do you feel all right?
275
00:22:20,538 --> 00:22:21,834
Yes!
276
00:22:21,869 --> 00:22:22,967
I said,
do you feel all right?
277
00:22:23,002 --> 00:22:24,507
Yes!
278
00:22:25,543 --> 00:22:27,004
Amen.
279
00:22:28,678 --> 00:22:31,646
I'm ecstatic to be able
to report to you
280
00:22:31,681 --> 00:22:34,979
that the day before yesterday,
we filled up the jail.
281
00:22:36,785 --> 00:22:39,115
We have already won a victory
here in Birmingham.
282
00:22:39,150 --> 00:22:40,391
Amen!
283
00:22:41,625 --> 00:22:43,526
Due, in no small part,
284
00:22:43,561 --> 00:22:46,089
to the valiant work
of our leader.
285
00:22:46,124 --> 00:22:48,960
A man whom I feel
honored to call my friend.
286
00:22:50,502 --> 00:22:54,867
The Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
287
00:22:54,902 --> 00:22:58,409
All right! Yes, sir!
Yes, sir! Yes, sir!
288
00:23:03,845 --> 00:23:05,548
Come on! Somebody!
289
00:23:13,492 --> 00:23:15,888
Some people
290
00:23:15,923 --> 00:23:18,891
think that we are crazy
291
00:23:18,926 --> 00:23:20,893
for taking on this fight.
292
00:23:20,928 --> 00:23:22,466
Yes!
293
00:23:22,501 --> 00:23:25,832
But the forces against us
are strong,
294
00:23:25,867 --> 00:23:28,967
and they are determined
to stop us.
295
00:23:29,002 --> 00:23:33,103
But we are just
as determined to go on!
296
00:23:35,778 --> 00:23:37,943
Non-violently,
297
00:23:38,880 --> 00:23:41,111
with love.
298
00:23:41,146 --> 00:23:44,455
As long as it takes
to win our freedom.
299
00:23:44,490 --> 00:23:45,588
Yes!
300
00:23:46,791 --> 00:23:49,856
And Jesus is here with us
every single step of the way.
301
00:23:52,025 --> 00:23:53,464
Amen!
302
00:23:53,499 --> 00:23:54,432
Yes, sir!
303
00:23:56,029 --> 00:23:57,600
Uncle Martin...
304
00:23:57,635 --> 00:24:01,131
Now don't call me
Uncle Martin anymore.
305
00:24:01,166 --> 00:24:02,638
You make me feel old,
that's the problem.
306
00:24:02,673 --> 00:24:03,870
I want to march.
307
00:24:04,906 --> 00:24:06,609
Don't look at me
like I'm still a child.
308
00:24:06,644 --> 00:24:07,775
I'm not afraid.
309
00:24:07,810 --> 00:24:09,480
-Oh, you're not?
-No.
310
00:24:09,515 --> 00:24:10,910
Well, damn.
311
00:24:10,945 --> 00:24:12,912
Then you need to be
leadin' this movement
312
00:24:12,947 --> 00:24:15,013
and teaching me how to not be
313
00:24:15,048 --> 00:24:17,180
terrified of these
crazy white folks.
314
00:24:17,215 --> 00:24:19,490
Martin...
-
315
00:24:19,987 --> 00:24:22,053
Why do you want to march?
316
00:24:22,088 --> 00:24:25,023
After all this time
traveling with you,
317
00:24:25,058 --> 00:24:26,662
after all the horror
we've seen,
318
00:24:26,697 --> 00:24:27,993
what kind of question is that?
319
00:24:30,932 --> 00:24:32,965
Are you runnin'
from your daddy?
320
00:24:33,000 --> 00:24:34,065
No.
321
00:24:36,069 --> 00:24:39,675
So, you tell him
you wanna march?
322
00:24:39,710 --> 00:24:41,512
I don't have to.
323
00:24:41,547 --> 00:24:43,976
It's my decision.
I'm a grown woman, remember?
324
00:24:44,011 --> 00:24:48,651
Oh, so, you ready
to orphan your kids now, hmm?
325
00:24:48,686 --> 00:24:50,851
-Are you?
-No.
326
00:24:50,886 --> 00:24:51,852
But you're doing it anyway.
327
00:24:51,887 --> 00:24:54,184
Because I have to.
328
00:24:54,219 --> 00:24:55,955
-And I don't?
-Ree...
329
00:24:55,990 --> 00:24:57,957
Singing for the movement
330
00:24:57,992 --> 00:25:00,663
and sending people
into battle with a song
331
00:25:00,698 --> 00:25:02,797
is not enough anymore.
332
00:25:02,832 --> 00:25:03,963
I need to be with them.
333
00:25:04,966 --> 00:25:06,031
You have a good talk?
334
00:25:07,298 --> 00:25:08,704
Yes.
335
00:25:14,305 --> 00:25:16,041
It was a good talk.
336
00:25:16,879 --> 00:25:18,879
Brother, come on.
337
00:25:18,914 --> 00:25:20,980
She's restless, I can tell.
338
00:25:21,015 --> 00:25:23,180
I... I... I don't know
if it's restless.
339
00:25:24,249 --> 00:25:26,821
She just wants to do more.
340
00:25:26,856 --> 00:25:28,086
What kind of more?
341
00:25:39,165 --> 00:25:40,098
I'll be there in a minute.
342
00:25:43,609 --> 00:25:44,839
Momma!
343
00:25:44,874 --> 00:25:47,710
Clarence! Eddie!
344
00:25:47,745 --> 00:25:50,680
-Momma! Momma! Momma!
-My babies! My babies!
345
00:25:53,014 --> 00:25:54,717
-Are you all right, baby?
-
346
00:25:54,752 --> 00:25:57,918
Clarence, you go in your room
and wait for me.
347
00:25:57,953 --> 00:25:59,755
Come here. It's all right,
baby, it's all right.
348
00:25:59,790 --> 00:26:01,020
Come on. Come on.
349
00:26:01,055 --> 00:26:03,187
It's all right.
It's all right.
350
00:26:03,222 --> 00:26:05,860
Every time I come
back, they want me less.
351
00:26:05,895 --> 00:26:07,158
That's not true.
352
00:26:07,193 --> 00:26:09,732
They talk about you
all the time.
353
00:26:09,767 --> 00:26:12,064
Every night, I show 'em
where you are on the map.
354
00:26:12,671 --> 00:26:14,132
One cookie.
355
00:26:18,941 --> 00:26:20,006
Fix your face now.
356
00:26:20,712 --> 00:26:22,206
This party is for y'all.
357
00:26:22,241 --> 00:26:23,944
-How are you, Mama?
-God is good.
358
00:26:23,979 --> 00:26:25,143
All the time.
359
00:26:26,652 --> 00:26:28,212
Let's eat. I'm starving.
360
00:26:29,347 --> 00:26:31,248
-
361
00:26:32,790 --> 00:26:34,086
So, where y'all headed?
362
00:26:34,121 --> 00:26:37,155
We go to Tennessee,
then to Georgia,
363
00:26:37,190 --> 00:26:40,290
then to North Carolina,
and then back to Alabama,
I think.
364
00:26:40,325 --> 00:26:42,831
Damn. Martin's tour's busier
than Daddy's.
365
00:26:42,866 --> 00:26:46,637
Erma, sometimes we hit
two states in one day.
366
00:26:46,672 --> 00:26:50,333
What was that story about
Aunt Mahalia not paying you?
367
00:26:50,368 --> 00:26:53,908
She said I would receive
my reward in Heaven.
368
00:26:58,211 --> 00:26:59,342
Oh.
369
00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:03,148
No, Ree. Uh-uh.
370
00:27:13,831 --> 00:27:15,226
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh...
371
00:27:15,261 --> 00:27:16,865
-Smokey...
-Hey, hey, hey, hey.
372
00:27:16,900 --> 00:27:18,328
He's got some news, Ree.
373
00:27:18,363 --> 00:27:20,099
I heard
you're cuttin' a record.
374
00:27:20,134 --> 00:27:22,101
Yeah, with Berry
over at Motown.
375
00:27:22,136 --> 00:27:23,905
They got some
sweet sounds, Ree.
376
00:27:23,940 --> 00:27:25,434
They're signing a bunch of
folks in the neighborhood.
377
00:27:25,469 --> 00:27:27,942
Listen, we are trying
to put Detroit on the map.
378
00:27:27,977 --> 00:27:29,240
You gotta be a part of it.
379
00:27:29,275 --> 00:27:31,682
-I would love that.
-Yeah?
380
00:27:31,717 --> 00:27:33,145
Cecil, let me talk
to Daddy about it.
381
00:27:33,180 --> 00:27:34,817
Don't bring it up until I say.
382
00:27:34,852 --> 00:27:36,819
You know what?
Let's let Berry talk to him.
383
00:27:36,854 --> 00:27:38,249
Better yet, his sister.
384
00:27:38,284 --> 00:27:40,691
She can talk ice
out of the devil's mouth.
385
00:27:42,057 --> 00:27:43,320
What are you drinking?
386
00:27:44,125 --> 00:27:45,663
Iced tea.
387
00:27:47,128 --> 00:27:50,261
Just iced tea?
388
00:27:52,199 --> 00:27:55,200
-With a little bourbon.
-
389
00:27:56,742 --> 00:27:58,973
Yeah, you look
like a bourbon girl.
390
00:28:01,274 --> 00:28:02,845
How long are you in town for?
391
00:28:02,880 --> 00:28:04,011
A week.
392
00:28:04,046 --> 00:28:05,749
Then I return to Tennessee.
393
00:28:05,784 --> 00:28:07,377
Well, then,
I won't waste any time.
394
00:28:07,412 --> 00:28:08,917
Mm.
395
00:28:08,952 --> 00:28:11,722
-I'd like to take you out.
-Hmm.
396
00:28:11,757 --> 00:28:13,350
I'd like you to take me out.
397
00:28:13,891 --> 00:28:15,220
How about tonight?
398
00:28:16,487 --> 00:28:18,157
Ree!
399
00:28:18,192 --> 00:28:19,895
Come and help me
set this table.
400
00:28:21,833 --> 00:28:24,867
Yes, to tonight.
401
00:28:24,902 --> 00:28:27,232
-Okay.
-Excuse me a moment.
402
00:28:37,046 --> 00:28:39,211
Reverend.
403
00:28:39,246 --> 00:28:42,016
I put up with you coming
to my house all these years
404
00:28:42,051 --> 00:28:44,414
'cause you were friends
with my friends.
405
00:28:44,449 --> 00:28:46,416
But I don't want you
around here anymore.
406
00:28:46,451 --> 00:28:48,385
May I give you some counsel,
Reverend?
407
00:28:49,828 --> 00:28:52,191
Ephesians 6:4 says, "Fathers,
408
00:28:52,226 --> 00:28:54,424
do not exasperate
your children.
409
00:28:54,459 --> 00:28:56,228
Instead, bring them up
in the training
410
00:28:56,263 --> 00:28:58,329
and the instruction
of the Lord."
411
00:28:58,364 --> 00:29:00,067
Lord, give me strength.
412
00:29:00,102 --> 00:29:01,464
Are you serious?
413
00:29:01,499 --> 00:29:04,434
You may wanna loosen
your grip on Aretha.
414
00:29:04,469 --> 00:29:06,007
You know, every minister's
daughter I've ever known...
415
00:29:06,042 --> 00:29:07,404
Nigga, you don't
wanna mess with me...
416
00:29:08,341 --> 00:29:09,406
or mine.
417
00:29:30,836 --> 00:29:32,297
I got this.
418
00:29:33,102 --> 00:29:34,431
I got it.
419
00:29:42,914 --> 00:29:44,342
-
420
00:29:44,377 --> 00:29:45,816
Whoo!
-
421
00:29:45,851 --> 00:29:47,114
Whoo!
422
00:29:48,854 --> 00:29:50,953
I love to party
423
00:29:52,253 --> 00:29:54,286
I want you by my side
424
00:29:54,321 --> 00:29:55,452
Take that off.
425
00:29:59,931 --> 00:30:02,558
-Everyone! everyone!
-
426
00:30:02,593 --> 00:30:05,462
Please, please, gather around.
427
00:30:07,906 --> 00:30:09,807
Aretha, will you join me,
please?
428
00:30:15,144 --> 00:30:17,848
This party is not just, uh,
429
00:30:17,883 --> 00:30:19,311
a homecoming.
430
00:30:19,346 --> 00:30:22,413
It's also an announcement.
431
00:30:22,448 --> 00:30:26,417
God is moving us
on to our next chapter.
432
00:30:29,290 --> 00:30:31,455
I've been talking to a number
of record producers
433
00:30:31,490 --> 00:30:32,995
about Aretha.
434
00:30:33,030 --> 00:30:34,898
There were many
435
00:30:34,933 --> 00:30:36,361
who were interested
in working with her.
436
00:30:39,432 --> 00:30:41,531
Tell them what it is, Ree.
437
00:30:41,566 --> 00:30:42,400
Ah...
438
00:30:44,910 --> 00:30:46,404
A plane ticket
to New York City.
439
00:30:52,082 --> 00:30:53,510
Congratulations, Ree.
440
00:30:55,580 --> 00:30:57,415
Thank you.
441
00:31:01,355 --> 00:31:02,860
This is it.
442
00:31:04,325 --> 00:31:05,863
Wow.
443
00:31:07,625 --> 00:31:09,559
Excuse me?
444
00:31:09,594 --> 00:31:11,561
I have a meeting
with a John Hammond
445
00:31:11,596 --> 00:31:12,936
of Columbia Records.
446
00:31:12,971 --> 00:31:14,498
Sign in, please.
447
00:31:22,343 --> 00:31:23,914
You ready?
448
00:31:25,346 --> 00:31:27,049
-I'm ready.
449
00:31:33,486 --> 00:31:38,192
I've always seen Aretha
as more than a gospel singer.
450
00:31:38,227 --> 00:31:41,261
Well, clearly from her demo,
she's so much more.
451
00:31:43,001 --> 00:31:44,429
Stand up, Ree.
452
00:31:45,630 --> 00:31:47,564
Turn around.
453
00:31:49,238 --> 00:31:52,074
There can sometimes be
a lack of effortlessness
454
00:31:52,109 --> 00:31:53,603
of the kind you find
455
00:31:53,638 --> 00:31:57,277
in a Lena Horne
or a Dorothy Dandridge.
456
00:31:57,312 --> 00:32:00,610
But what Aretha lacks
in formal education,
457
00:32:00,645 --> 00:32:03,547
she more than makes up for
in experience.
458
00:32:03,582 --> 00:32:07,958
She has performed before every
type of crowd imaginable,
459
00:32:07,993 --> 00:32:11,456
from small churches
to audiences of thousands.
460
00:32:12,492 --> 00:32:13,491
You can sit down now, Ree.
461
00:32:20,401 --> 00:32:24,139
I... I'm curious.
462
00:32:25,703 --> 00:32:28,506
Who are your favorite artists?
463
00:32:28,541 --> 00:32:30,145
Dinah Washington.
464
00:32:30,741 --> 00:32:32,312
Ella Fitzgerald.
465
00:32:32,347 --> 00:32:33,951
-Hmm.
- Sam Cooke.
466
00:32:34,415 --> 00:32:35,480
All family friends.
467
00:32:36,549 --> 00:32:38,714
Sam would very much
like Aretha
468
00:32:38,749 --> 00:32:40,617
to sign with RCA.
469
00:32:41,290 --> 00:32:43,488
Well, we can't have that.
470
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,525
Welcome
471
00:32:47,560 --> 00:32:49,098
to Columbia Records.
472
00:32:57,768 --> 00:32:59,141
Prove yourself
473
00:33:00,639 --> 00:33:02,540
as a jazz artist, and
everything else will follow.
474
00:33:02,575 --> 00:33:04,047
I understand.
475
00:33:04,082 --> 00:33:05,378
Wonderful.
476
00:33:15,456 --> 00:33:17,423
Are you ready, Aretha?
477
00:33:17,458 --> 00:33:19,557
-Yes, Mr. Hammond.
-Wonderful.
478
00:33:19,592 --> 00:33:21,196
The conductor
will point at you
479
00:33:21,231 --> 00:33:22,593
when he's ready
for you to begin.
480
00:33:36,213 --> 00:33:40,578
accentuate the positive
481
00:33:44,551 --> 00:33:48,058
to the affirmative
482
00:33:48,093 --> 00:33:49,389
with mister in-between
483
00:33:49,424 --> 00:33:50,456
She sounds wonderful,
doesn't she?
484
00:33:50,491 --> 00:33:51,721
She does.
485
00:33:51,756 --> 00:33:53,789
Like a black Judy Garland.
486
00:33:53,824 --> 00:33:55,593
up to the maximum
487
00:33:55,628 --> 00:33:59,234
down to the minimum
488
00:33:59,269 --> 00:34:02,666
pandemonium
489
00:34:02,701 --> 00:34:06,505
upon the scene
490
00:34:06,540 --> 00:34:08,243
Ladies and gentlemen,
491
00:34:08,278 --> 00:34:10,080
the Village Vanguard
is proud to present
492
00:34:10,115 --> 00:34:11,576
Miss Aretha Franklin,
493
00:34:11,611 --> 00:34:14,084
debuting her latest record,
Unforgettable.
494
00:34:21,555 --> 00:34:24,127
Good evening,
ladies and gentlemen.
495
00:34:24,162 --> 00:34:26,591
We hope you enjoy
the show tonight.
496
00:34:27,396 --> 00:34:29,561
I see an old family friend.
497
00:34:29,596 --> 00:34:32,102
Dinah Washington
is in the audience.
498
00:34:39,441 --> 00:34:40,836
I'd like to sing a song
499
00:34:40,871 --> 00:34:44,642
in honor of her great artistry
and talent.
500
00:35:08,239 --> 00:35:09,799
Bitch!
501
00:35:09,834 --> 00:35:11,636
Don't you ever sing
the Queen's songs
502
00:35:11,671 --> 00:35:12,769
when the Queen
is in front of you!
503
00:35:22,352 --> 00:35:24,484
What the hell
were you thinking?
504
00:35:24,849 --> 00:35:26,288
I'm sorry.
505
00:35:26,323 --> 00:35:27,487
You wanna take me on?
506
00:35:27,522 --> 00:35:29,357
-No.
- Liar.
507
00:35:29,392 --> 00:35:30,886
You wouldn't be here if you
wasn't trying to replace me
508
00:35:30,921 --> 00:35:32,789
and every other bitch
out here singin'.
509
00:35:34,529 --> 00:35:35,891
How many albums have you had?
510
00:35:35,926 --> 00:35:36,859
Four.
511
00:35:38,335 --> 00:35:39,796
And no hits.
512
00:35:48,477 --> 00:35:50,510
You out here,
but I can see you
513
00:35:50,545 --> 00:35:52,512
still that little girl
in your daddy's living room.
514
00:35:52,547 --> 00:35:54,778
You're singin' everything
and anything.
515
00:35:54,813 --> 00:35:57,385
Shoop Shoop one day,
Skylark the next,
516
00:35:57,420 --> 00:35:59,717
and then some
Billie Holiday blues.
517
00:35:59,752 --> 00:36:01,290
Girl, you're all
over the place.
518
00:36:01,886 --> 00:36:02,819
What do you wanna sing?
519
00:36:03,954 --> 00:36:05,294
I don't know.
520
00:36:08,365 --> 00:36:09,727
You don't know?
521
00:36:09,762 --> 00:36:12,796
I want hits. I just want hits.
522
00:36:12,831 --> 00:36:14,732
Girl, you need to let go
of that "up with the race"
523
00:36:14,767 --> 00:36:17,405
Booker T. Washington
proper Negro shit.
524
00:36:17,440 --> 00:36:18,901
That's not you.
525
00:36:18,936 --> 00:36:20,606
Your daddy likes to pretend
that's who he is,
526
00:36:20,641 --> 00:36:22,608
but that's not
who he is either.
527
00:36:22,643 --> 00:36:25,215
Child, y'all church folks
528
00:36:25,250 --> 00:36:27,943
are some of the nastiest
people out here.
529
00:36:27,978 --> 00:36:30,517
Ray Charles told me
that the best sex he ever had
530
00:36:30,552 --> 00:36:32,222
was when he was singin'
on the gospel circuit.
531
00:36:33,819 --> 00:36:37,755
Honey, find the songs
that suit you. That move you.
532
00:36:37,790 --> 00:36:41,198
Until you do that,
you ain't goin' nowhere.
533
00:36:44,929 --> 00:36:46,533
Put some teabags on that.
534
00:36:47,668 --> 00:36:48,865
Take the puffiness down.
535
00:36:54,312 --> 00:36:55,542
How's Big Mama?
536
00:36:57,348 --> 00:36:58,611
She's all right.
537
00:36:58,976 --> 00:36:59,876
The kids?
538
00:37:01,550 --> 00:37:03,385
They're good.
539
00:37:03,420 --> 00:37:05,486
Child, you ever gonna tell us
who their daddy is?
540
00:37:36,849 --> 00:37:38,684
Ree-Ree?
541
00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:39,883
You wanna tell me
what's wrong?
542
00:37:39,918 --> 00:37:40,917
I can't.
543
00:38:12,489 --> 00:38:13,752
No answer.
544
00:38:14,524 --> 00:38:15,622
Call her again.
545
00:38:20,761 --> 00:38:21,660
Hmm.
546
00:38:23,093 --> 00:38:25,335
I didn't know you were
comin' in today, Daddy.
547
00:38:25,370 --> 00:38:26,798
You are 68 minutes late.
548
00:38:26,833 --> 00:38:29,999
Mr. Hammond
asked me to come in.
549
00:38:30,034 --> 00:38:33,904
You've been skipping
interviews and gigs.
550
00:38:34,940 --> 00:38:37,611
The demon is back.
551
00:38:37,646 --> 00:38:40,878
Ree has a tendency
to indulge her pain.
552
00:38:40,913 --> 00:38:43,078
Can we talk about this
somewhere else?
553
00:38:43,113 --> 00:38:45,047
John. John.
554
00:38:45,082 --> 00:38:48,556
It's important that you
understand that this behavior
555
00:38:48,591 --> 00:38:53,055
is not a reflection
of her upbringing or her race.
556
00:38:53,090 --> 00:38:54,760
Well, I've worked
with Bessie Smith
557
00:38:54,795 --> 00:38:55,959
and Billie Holiday.
558
00:38:55,994 --> 00:38:58,368
Aretha is a saint
in comparison.
559
00:38:58,403 --> 00:39:00,502
She wasn't raised in
a whorehouse like them.
560
00:39:00,537 --> 00:39:02,801
She was raised
in a proper home
561
00:39:02,836 --> 00:39:04,935
with every convenience
and luxury.
562
00:39:06,939 --> 00:39:10,776
But still, a darkness
would descend on her.
563
00:39:10,811 --> 00:39:12,415
I called it the demon.
564
00:39:12,450 --> 00:39:15,847
She'd lock herself away,
wouldn't speak, move,
565
00:39:15,882 --> 00:39:17,816
just wallow
in whatever imaginary...
566
00:39:18,489 --> 00:39:19,554
I...
567
00:39:22,119 --> 00:39:24,724
You told me before
we came out here
568
00:39:24,759 --> 00:39:25,659
that you had it under control.
569
00:39:25,694 --> 00:39:27,023
I have control.
570
00:39:29,159 --> 00:39:32,402
You keep complaining
that you don't have any hits.
571
00:39:32,437 --> 00:39:34,932
This is why
you don't have any hits.
572
00:39:34,967 --> 00:39:36,032
Acting like a trifling...
573
00:39:39,708 --> 00:39:40,971
Apologize to Mr. Hammond.
574
00:39:41,006 --> 00:39:43,072
No, there's no need
to apologize.
575
00:39:43,107 --> 00:39:45,844
That is not why
I don't have hits.
576
00:39:45,879 --> 00:39:47,043
You don't pick
good songs for me.
577
00:39:55,152 --> 00:39:57,592
Sorry for being late,
Mr. Hammond.
578
00:39:59,992 --> 00:40:01,596
It won't happen again.
579
00:40:03,193 --> 00:40:05,061
I'm ready to record
when you are.
580
00:40:05,800 --> 00:40:06,997
Hmm.
581
00:40:10,739 --> 00:40:13,443
Please excuse me while
I go to the ladies' room.
582
00:40:29,021 --> 00:40:31,593
So, you gonna come
with us this weekend?
583
00:40:31,628 --> 00:40:32,759
I have a gig.
584
00:40:32,794 --> 00:40:34,464
We can go after your gig.
585
00:40:35,192 --> 00:40:37,060
You work too hard.
586
00:40:37,095 --> 00:40:39,436
-Not according to my daddy.
-
587
00:40:40,670 --> 00:40:42,736
Well, you need some fun.
588
00:40:42,771 --> 00:40:43,968
Come with us.
589
00:40:52,044 --> 00:40:54,077
Can you introduce me
to his friend?
590
00:40:54,783 --> 00:40:56,046
I don't know him.
591
00:41:09,534 --> 00:41:11,193
-
592
00:41:21,810 --> 00:41:24,008
-
593
00:41:36,088 --> 00:41:38,726
You were supposed
to take me out in Detroit.
594
00:41:38,761 --> 00:41:40,090
Yes, one of my singers
595
00:41:40,125 --> 00:41:41,795
ran into a little trouble
out of town,
596
00:41:41,830 --> 00:41:44,193
so I had to take care of it.
597
00:41:44,228 --> 00:41:46,195
I think my father
said something to you
598
00:41:46,230 --> 00:41:48,835
-to make you reconsider.
-Oh.
599
00:41:48,870 --> 00:41:52,267
That's a nice little fable
you got goin' on in your head.
600
00:41:53,974 --> 00:41:55,105
I know what you do.
601
00:41:57,747 --> 00:41:59,241
It doesn't bother me.
602
00:42:00,783 --> 00:42:04,147
I know it doesn't bother you.
603
00:42:04,182 --> 00:42:07,084
You're rebelling against
your daddy.
604
00:42:07,119 --> 00:42:08,250
I don't mind.
605
00:42:09,253 --> 00:42:12,188
Listen, you wanna
use me for my body,
606
00:42:12,861 --> 00:42:14,861
you can use me, baby.
607
00:42:14,896 --> 00:42:17,226
You can wring me dry.
608
00:42:17,261 --> 00:42:20,031
You and me,
we've been through it.
609
00:42:21,001 --> 00:42:23,298
So we can skip all the flowers
610
00:42:23,333 --> 00:42:25,168
and the promises,
and the love bullshit,
611
00:42:25,203 --> 00:42:27,005
and just have some fun.
612
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:28,842
I like fun.
613
00:42:28,877 --> 00:42:30,206
And we'll have plenty of it.
614
00:42:34,311 --> 00:42:36,014
I want one thing from you.
615
00:42:37,281 --> 00:42:38,115
What?
616
00:42:39,349 --> 00:42:41,019
To hear you sing.
617
00:42:41,054 --> 00:42:42,856
Just for me.
618
00:42:42,891 --> 00:42:45,023
What will I get in return?
619
00:42:45,828 --> 00:42:48,224
The best night of your life.
620
00:43:17,794 --> 00:43:18,925
Taxi!
621
00:43:36,010 --> 00:43:38,978
I want you to think about me
when you sing tomorrow.
622
00:43:39,013 --> 00:43:40,914
You're not coming home
with me?
623
00:43:41,411 --> 00:43:43,246
No.
624
00:43:43,281 --> 00:43:45,248
What about the best night
of my life?
625
00:43:45,283 --> 00:43:47,151
I didn't say
it would be tonight.
626
00:43:57,966 --> 00:44:02,001
enchanted boy
627
00:44:02,036 --> 00:44:08,073
Very far
628
00:44:30,999 --> 00:44:35,331
He passed my way
629
00:44:37,434 --> 00:44:38,939
I'm sorry.
630
00:44:40,008 --> 00:44:41,337
I'm sorry.
631
00:44:44,947 --> 00:44:46,848
Would you like
to take a break, Aretha?
632
00:44:47,345 --> 00:44:48,982
No.
633
00:44:49,017 --> 00:44:50,247
I'll get it right this time.
634
00:44:51,217 --> 00:44:52,414
Take 12.
635
00:45:11,237 --> 00:45:15,404
enchanted boy
636
00:45:15,439 --> 00:45:21,212
Very far
637
00:45:44,468 --> 00:45:48,470
he passed my way
638
00:45:48,505 --> 00:45:51,913
of many things
639
00:46:20,537 --> 00:46:22,438
You have all my records.
640
00:46:25,047 --> 00:46:26,409
You like them?
641
00:46:26,444 --> 00:46:27,443
I bought them.
642
00:46:29,986 --> 00:46:31,381
Which one you like best?
643
00:46:33,253 --> 00:46:34,384
They've all got something.
644
00:46:36,124 --> 00:46:37,827
Is this one your favorite?
645
00:46:40,128 --> 00:46:41,193
Hmm?
646
00:46:44,528 --> 00:46:45,934
Or this?
647
00:46:48,906 --> 00:46:50,268
What are you doing?
648
00:46:50,303 --> 00:46:51,874
Or this one?
649
00:46:51,909 --> 00:46:54,107
Went to 64 on the charts.
650
00:46:56,144 --> 00:46:58,012
You didn't even open this one.
651
00:47:00,445 --> 00:47:01,378
You don't like them?
652
00:47:02,282 --> 00:47:03,446
I didn't say that.
653
00:47:03,481 --> 00:47:04,986
Then say it.
654
00:47:05,021 --> 00:47:06,416
I won't be upset.
655
00:47:06,957 --> 00:47:08,990
No one does.
656
00:47:09,025 --> 00:47:11,861
First, I've listened
to all your albums.
657
00:47:12,589 --> 00:47:15,161
Including this one.
658
00:47:15,966 --> 00:47:17,427
More than once.
659
00:47:19,068 --> 00:47:22,135
Secondly, I love music.
660
00:47:22,170 --> 00:47:24,467
I take it seriously.
661
00:47:24,502 --> 00:47:27,305
I managed my first artist
when I was 15.
662
00:47:27,340 --> 00:47:31,045
Thirdly, what you
experienced yesterday,
663
00:47:31,080 --> 00:47:33,575
17 takes on one song?
664
00:47:33,610 --> 00:47:36,314
That happens to me
every time I hear you sing.
665
00:47:37,251 --> 00:47:39,416
My brain gets all...
666
00:47:40,584 --> 00:47:42,419
muddled.
667
00:47:42,454 --> 00:47:46,896
Well, first,
668
00:47:46,931 --> 00:47:50,526
my apologies for putting
you through so much pain.
669
00:47:53,102 --> 00:47:56,169
-And secondly...
-Mm-hmm.
670
00:47:56,204 --> 00:47:59,172
...you should have never told
me about your Achilles' heel.
671
00:48:00,340 --> 00:48:02,175
On our first date.
672
00:48:11,384 --> 00:48:13,318
Oh, damn it.
673
00:48:13,353 --> 00:48:16,288
-
674
00:48:20,624 --> 00:48:24,230
-Keep singing.
-
675
00:48:24,265 --> 00:48:25,968
I didn't think you were
comin' home for two weeks.
676
00:48:26,003 --> 00:48:27,464
-I miss my babies.
-
677
00:48:27,499 --> 00:48:28,971
And y'all.
678
00:48:31,041 --> 00:48:32,205
Who's that plate for?
679
00:48:33,274 --> 00:48:34,471
Ted.
680
00:48:34,506 --> 00:48:37,980
Oh, sweet Jesus,
are you serious?
681
00:48:38,015 --> 00:48:39,278
-What are you thinking?
-Please help me with Daddy.
682
00:48:39,313 --> 00:48:40,312
-No...
-Help me.
683
00:48:41,018 --> 00:48:42,182
Good Sunday, everybody.
684
00:48:48,322 --> 00:48:50,960
What the hell is this?
685
00:48:50,995 --> 00:48:52,522
You didn't tell them
I was coming?
686
00:48:52,557 --> 00:48:53,996
I don't know what you think
you're doing here
687
00:48:54,031 --> 00:48:55,096
and I don't care.
688
00:48:55,131 --> 00:48:57,263
Just leave. Now.
689
00:48:57,298 --> 00:48:58,627
Aretha asked me to come
690
00:48:58,662 --> 00:49:00,431
and Aretha
can ask me to leave.
691
00:49:01,731 --> 00:49:04,270
-I want him to stay.
-This is my house.
692
00:49:04,305 --> 00:49:05,634
Since when do
you get to tell me
693
00:49:05,669 --> 00:49:07,504
who gets to be in my house,
Ree, huh?
694
00:49:07,539 --> 00:49:09,506
I want you to get to know him.
695
00:49:09,541 --> 00:49:10,672
He's not what you think.
696
00:49:10,707 --> 00:49:11,706
Are you pregnant again?
697
00:49:11,741 --> 00:49:13,213
No!
698
00:49:14,348 --> 00:49:16,381
We just wanna be together.
699
00:49:18,055 --> 00:49:19,549
I love your daughter,
Reverend.
700
00:49:21,685 --> 00:49:24,026
And I think she loves me.
701
00:49:24,061 --> 00:49:25,390
I do.
702
00:49:25,425 --> 00:49:27,062
-No! No!
- Oh, my Lord!
703
00:49:27,097 --> 00:49:28,163
Ree...
- Clarence! No!
704
00:49:28,198 --> 00:49:30,197
Didn't I tell you
not to mess with me or mine?
705
00:49:30,232 --> 00:49:31,099
-Didn't I tell you?
-Clarence!
706
00:49:31,134 --> 00:49:32,463
Son, don't you let this man
707
00:49:32,498 --> 00:49:34,366
put your church
and your soul in jeopardy.
708
00:49:45,709 --> 00:49:46,983
Reverend,
709
00:49:48,316 --> 00:49:49,546
we have to figure this out.
710
00:49:49,581 --> 00:49:51,614
I'm not going anywhere.
711
00:49:51,649 --> 00:49:53,715
You can't see
through this hustler?
712
00:49:53,750 --> 00:49:56,751
-You're the greatest hustler
I ever seen.
-
713
00:49:56,786 --> 00:49:59,688
Every night, she picks herself
apart because of you.
714
00:49:59,723 --> 00:50:03,065
She thinks it's her hair,
her body, her voice.
715
00:50:03,100 --> 00:50:05,166
She worries about failing you,
but it's your failure.
716
00:50:05,201 --> 00:50:07,069
Get out! Just...
717
00:50:07,104 --> 00:50:09,434
Daddy, I know
how busy you are.
718
00:50:09,469 --> 00:50:11,634
You have so much
going on all the time.
719
00:50:11,669 --> 00:50:13,570
Running a church,
the speakin' engagements,
720
00:50:13,605 --> 00:50:16,441
managing Carolyn.
721
00:50:16,476 --> 00:50:18,641
I know about your contract
at Horizon Records.
722
00:50:18,676 --> 00:50:20,478
I was gonna tell you.
723
00:50:20,513 --> 00:50:22,249
When?
When the damn album came out?
724
00:50:22,284 --> 00:50:24,218
Nobody can tell you anything,
Ree. You're so jealous.
725
00:50:24,253 --> 00:50:25,714
Jealous? Of you two?
726
00:50:25,749 --> 00:50:27,188
You think you better than us?
727
00:50:27,223 --> 00:50:28,486
That's exactly
728
00:50:28,521 --> 00:50:29,454
-what she's saying.
- No!
729
00:50:29,489 --> 00:50:31,555
Quiet! Quiet! Quiet!
730
00:50:32,756 --> 00:50:35,361
You are not
leaving this family
731
00:50:35,396 --> 00:50:37,297
for that piece of trash.
732
00:50:39,103 --> 00:50:41,301
I need a change.
733
00:50:42,403 --> 00:50:44,601
I wanna sing what I wanna sing
734
00:50:44,636 --> 00:50:47,505
and I wanna dress
like I want to dress.
735
00:50:48,277 --> 00:50:49,606
And I want Ted to manage me.
736
00:50:51,313 --> 00:50:54,149
He's not worth the shit
at the bottom of my shoe.
737
00:50:54,184 --> 00:50:56,349
So that means that you think
I'm worth less than that.
738
00:50:56,384 --> 00:50:57,680
After all we've been through.
739
00:50:57,715 --> 00:50:59,187
After all that
I've done for you.
740
00:51:04,392 --> 00:51:06,656
I have to do this, Daddy.
741
00:51:12,136 --> 00:51:15,599
You are going to beg me
to take you back.
742
00:51:18,835 --> 00:51:20,637
But I won't.
743
00:51:21,310 --> 00:51:22,639
I won't.
744
00:51:42,826 --> 00:51:45,662
I'm gonna say goodbye
to my children.
745
00:51:45,697 --> 00:51:47,829
-Okay.
-And then we'll go.
746
00:51:47,864 --> 00:51:48,830
Okay.
747
00:52:03,583 --> 00:52:04,846
Y'all not gonna fix me a plate?
748
00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,577
with that gun in your hand?
749
00:52:36,220 --> 00:52:37,912
You keep beating up
these club owners,
750
00:52:37,947 --> 00:52:40,288
there won't be any clubs
left for me to sing at.
751
00:52:41,357 --> 00:52:43,621
No one disrespects us.
752
00:52:43,656 --> 00:52:45,524
I just don't know
what else to do...
753
00:52:46,362 --> 00:52:48,560
after nine albums.
754
00:52:51,367 --> 00:52:52,729
Yes, this is Ted White.
755
00:52:52,764 --> 00:52:55,402
I'm calling to speak
to Mr. Whitfield.
756
00:52:55,437 --> 00:52:57,734
Well, I'd like to speak to him
about Aretha Franklin.
757
00:53:01,245 --> 00:53:04,246
-Mommy can't cook either.
-It's sticky!
758
00:53:06,910 --> 00:53:08,811
I'm gonna be honest with ya.
759
00:53:08,846 --> 00:53:11,847
Your version of Skylark
is one of my favorite songs.
760
00:53:12,553 --> 00:53:13,882
Thank you, Mr. Wexler.
761
00:53:13,917 --> 00:53:15,620
Oh, please, call me Jerry.
762
00:53:15,655 --> 00:53:17,391
You know what Etta James said
when she heard it?
763
00:53:17,426 --> 00:53:19,426
She said you pissed
all over that song,
764
00:53:19,461 --> 00:53:22,495
and she would never sing it
again in her entire life.
765
00:53:22,530 --> 00:53:24,497
You ruined that song
for Etta James.
766
00:53:24,532 --> 00:53:25,894
That is how good it was.
767
00:53:25,929 --> 00:53:27,632
And I'm not
bullshittin' ya, okay?
768
00:53:27,667 --> 00:53:28,566
A lot of these guys out here
769
00:53:28,602 --> 00:53:29,898
will say anything
to get in your drawers,
770
00:53:29,933 --> 00:53:31,537
but that's not me.
771
00:53:31,572 --> 00:53:33,671
I'm sorry.
All right, I'm crude.
772
00:53:33,706 --> 00:53:36,377
And you're a church girl,
and I should watch my mouth.
773
00:53:36,412 --> 00:53:37,642
I'm sorry.
774
00:53:38,612 --> 00:53:40,777
You do talk, don't ya?
Not just sing?
775
00:53:43,683 --> 00:53:45,320
You are
the sweetest thing, Aretha.
776
00:53:46,488 --> 00:53:48,554
I'd like you to call me
Miss Franklin.
777
00:53:48,589 --> 00:53:51,656
Okay, Miss Franklin.
778
00:53:51,691 --> 00:53:53,427
What songs would
you like to sing?
779
00:53:53,462 --> 00:53:55,264
I want hits.
780
00:53:55,299 --> 00:53:56,727
We're done
with standards.
781
00:53:56,762 --> 00:53:58,795
We want original songs
made for Aretha only.
782
00:53:58,830 --> 00:54:01,666
Great! We are speaking
the same language, my man.
783
00:54:01,701 --> 00:54:02,832
One of the songwriters
I represent
784
00:54:02,867 --> 00:54:04,537
wrote a good song for Aretha,
785
00:54:04,572 --> 00:54:06,407
I Never Loved A Man.
786
00:54:06,442 --> 00:54:08,475
Terrific. I've got the perfect
place to record it.
787
00:54:08,510 --> 00:54:09,839
I'm working with
this little studio
788
00:54:09,874 --> 00:54:11,544
down in Alabama and...
789
00:54:11,579 --> 00:54:13,447
Aretha's only recorded
in New York.
790
00:54:13,482 --> 00:54:15,548
Yeah, I know that, but I think
that's part of the problem.
791
00:54:15,583 --> 00:54:17,385
It's overproduced,
it's a little too polished.
792
00:54:17,420 --> 00:54:18,386
I mean, these boys
down there...
793
00:54:18,421 --> 00:54:20,014
"Boys"?
794
00:54:20,049 --> 00:54:21,686
Don't be offended, all right?
795
00:54:21,721 --> 00:54:23,985
I say boys because
they're young like Aretha,
796
00:54:24,020 --> 00:54:26,625
like Miss Franklin,
not because they're Negroes.
797
00:54:26,660 --> 00:54:28,022
These guys are
the best musicians
798
00:54:28,057 --> 00:54:29,727
I have ever
worked with in my life,
799
00:54:29,762 --> 00:54:31,564
and that's saying something.
800
00:54:31,599 --> 00:54:32,862
I've been doing this
a long time.
801
00:54:32,897 --> 00:54:34,567
They don't need
to read charts.
802
00:54:34,602 --> 00:54:36,899
They just feel their way
through the music.
803
00:54:36,934 --> 00:54:38,967
It's really something.
How does that sound to you?
804
00:54:40,410 --> 00:54:41,772
Sounds good.
805
00:54:41,807 --> 00:54:44,874
And I'm not controlling
like Hammond, okay?
806
00:54:44,909 --> 00:54:46,480
I'm gonna give you
plenty of space
807
00:54:46,515 --> 00:54:47,877
to do your thing, all right?
808
00:54:47,912 --> 00:54:50,319
This is your show,
Miss Franklin.
809
00:54:50,354 --> 00:54:51,518
Your record.
810
00:54:51,553 --> 00:54:52,717
Okay?
811
00:55:36,862 --> 00:55:38,499
This is it?
812
00:55:38,534 --> 00:55:41,403
What did all the glamor
at Columbia get me?
813
00:55:41,438 --> 00:55:42,932
Do you know who
you're messing with?
814
00:55:42,967 --> 00:55:44,604
"Do I know who I'm..."
Do you know who you're messing
815
00:55:44,639 --> 00:55:45,770
-with, buddy?
-You tryin' to screw me over,
816
00:55:45,805 --> 00:55:46,969
-Rick?
-You in my town now, buddy!
817
00:55:47,004 --> 00:55:47,640
This is my place!
818
00:55:47,675 --> 00:55:48,839
It's my record!
819
00:55:48,874 --> 00:55:50,676
Everything you see here
is mine!
820
00:55:50,711 --> 00:55:52,007
This is my record!
821
00:55:56,849 --> 00:55:58,849
Miss Franklin, Ted,
822
00:55:58,884 --> 00:56:00,917
-welcome.
-Jerry.
823
00:56:00,952 --> 00:56:02,424
Nice to see you. Hello.
824
00:56:03,559 --> 00:56:04,789
I'm Rick Hall.
825
00:56:08,894 --> 00:56:10,960
You don't have any Negro
musicians in this town?
826
00:56:11,468 --> 00:56:12,863
Uh...
827
00:56:12,898 --> 00:56:14,403
-We were just discussing that.
-Not today.
828
00:56:14,438 --> 00:56:15,932
Not today?
829
00:56:15,967 --> 00:56:19,672
There was
a miscommunication, Ted.
830
00:56:19,707 --> 00:56:21,971
Negroes only allowed to pick
cotton in these parts, huh?
831
00:56:28,111 --> 00:56:30,980
Percy Sledge had
that same look on his face
832
00:56:31,015 --> 00:56:32,146
when he first come in here.
833
00:56:32,984 --> 00:56:34,720
And then he heard 'em play
834
00:56:34,755 --> 00:56:38,020
and he was very satisfied
with his record.
835
00:56:38,055 --> 00:56:39,857
I think you will be, too.
836
00:56:39,892 --> 00:56:41,430
-Drink?
-We don't have time
837
00:56:41,465 --> 00:56:42,794
for this right now.
838
00:56:46,998 --> 00:56:48,404
Where can I get
a jacket like that?
839
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:50,571
You'd have to come to Harlem.
840
00:56:51,871 --> 00:56:53,134
Always wanted to go to Harlem.
841
00:56:53,169 --> 00:56:54,641
Yeah.
842
00:57:03,014 --> 00:57:06,851
You're a no good
heartbreaker
843
00:57:06,886 --> 00:57:08,457
Who's this singin'?
844
00:57:08,492 --> 00:57:09,557
The songwriter.
845
00:57:12,628 --> 00:57:13,693
Sings like a writer.
846
00:57:15,224 --> 00:57:17,026
Rick,
you want drums on this?
847
00:57:17,061 --> 00:57:18,962
Or you just wanna
keep it boring?
848
00:57:18,997 --> 00:57:20,634
I don't know, Roger. You know
any good drummers around here?
849
00:57:20,669 --> 00:57:22,603
Don't, actually.
850
00:57:22,638 --> 00:57:24,231
It's just slow.
851
00:57:24,266 --> 00:57:25,870
-It's just a little slow.
- Little slow, yeah.
852
00:57:25,905 --> 00:57:27,641
All right! Come on, guys!
853
00:57:27,676 --> 00:57:29,643
Hang with me on this.
This is a good song!
854
00:57:29,678 --> 00:57:31,007
It's a great song.
855
00:57:31,042 --> 00:57:32,811
It is what it is.
856
00:57:41,921 --> 00:57:43,921
All right. Let's see
what we can make of it.
857
00:57:43,956 --> 00:57:45,155
Hey, Spooner.
858
00:57:45,191 --> 00:57:47,056
You wanna keep that shuffle
on there or straighten it out?
859
00:57:47,696 --> 00:57:49,091
Let's straighten it out.
860
00:57:49,929 --> 00:57:50,994
Straighten it out.
861
00:57:51,667 --> 00:57:52,534
Straightening out.
862
00:57:57,805 --> 00:57:59,068
Put some fatback on it.
863
00:57:59,103 --> 00:58:01,037
Yeah, like a King Curtis deal?
864
00:58:01,072 --> 00:58:03,644
Yeah...
-
865
00:58:09,685 --> 00:58:11,080
Hey, man, that's groovy.
866
00:58:12,985 --> 00:58:15,249
All right, let's go with that.
867
00:58:15,284 --> 00:58:17,185
-Yeah.
-
868
00:58:21,092 --> 00:58:25,160
heartbreaker
869
00:58:26,163 --> 00:58:30,099
and you're a cheat
870
00:58:37,581 --> 00:58:39,240
do these things...
871
00:58:39,275 --> 00:58:40,978
Okay, let's hold up.
872
00:58:41,013 --> 00:58:42,980
Hold up. It sounds like,
873
00:58:43,015 --> 00:58:45,015
uh, Sunday morning
service in there.
874
00:58:45,050 --> 00:58:46,555
Yeah, I was just about to say,
875
00:58:46,590 --> 00:58:47,853
it's a little
too churchy, guys.
876
00:58:47,888 --> 00:58:49,316
I liked it.
877
00:58:49,351 --> 00:58:51,791
Let's find a different pocket,
all right?
878
00:58:52,893 --> 00:58:54,222
Something with more swing.
879
00:58:54,895 --> 00:58:56,125
Speed it up.
880
00:58:56,160 --> 00:58:57,632
Yeah.
881
00:58:57,667 --> 00:58:59,931
No, don't speed it up.
Follow me.
882
00:59:25,354 --> 00:59:28,124
if I could
883
00:59:29,633 --> 00:59:31,226
Stop. Stop.
884
00:59:33,098 --> 00:59:35,197
It's too busy.
885
00:59:35,232 --> 00:59:36,770
Let the song do the work.
886
00:59:36,805 --> 00:59:37,936
Yeah, stop showing off, guys.
887
00:59:37,971 --> 00:59:39,135
Yeah, boys, if you're trying
888
00:59:39,170 --> 00:59:41,038
to impress me,
it's not working.
889
00:59:41,073 --> 00:59:42,875
Yeah, and more importantly,
it's startin' to piss me off.
890
00:59:42,910 --> 00:59:43,942
Maybe we should do
something closer
891
00:59:43,977 --> 00:59:45,075
to the original arrangement.
892
00:59:45,110 --> 00:59:46,879
Nah.
-No, it's done.
893
00:59:49,114 --> 00:59:50,311
You kept
steppin' on me.
894
00:59:50,346 --> 00:59:51,785
You were
all over the neck.
895
00:59:51,820 --> 00:59:52,753
I couldn't tell
what you were doing.
896
00:59:52,788 --> 00:59:53,886
I'm all over the neck?
897
00:59:53,921 --> 00:59:54,953
Find your lane, Jimmy.
898
00:59:54,988 --> 00:59:56,218
Look who's talkin'.
899
00:59:56,253 --> 00:59:57,857
They could hear
your crash in Texas.
900
00:59:57,892 --> 00:59:59,386
Well, my horn
arrangement's killer.
901
00:59:59,421 --> 01:00:00,959
Y'all let me know
when you're ready to hear it.
902
01:00:00,994 --> 01:00:01,793
You gonna
save the song, Jack?
903
01:00:01,828 --> 01:00:03,126
As I have on many
an occasion, okay.
904
01:00:03,161 --> 01:00:03,797
Okay.
905
01:00:04,900 --> 01:00:06,294
Good job, Jack.
- How about that.
906
01:00:20,244 --> 01:00:22,651
Spooner's got it!
Spooner's got it!
907
01:00:22,686 --> 01:00:23,784
Yeah, he does.
908
01:00:31,255 --> 01:00:34,157
good heartbreaker
909
01:00:35,699 --> 01:00:38,326
you're a cheat
910
01:00:43,432 --> 01:00:46,774
these things to me
911
01:00:58,183 --> 01:00:59,985
-Go on, baby.
912
01:01:10,734 --> 01:01:14,329
I ain't
913
01:01:20,271 --> 01:01:24,680
I love you, yeah
914
01:01:31,315 --> 01:01:33,821
run out of fools
915
01:01:38,927 --> 01:01:41,026
that you'll never lose
916
01:01:41,061 --> 01:01:42,291
That is rocking.
917
01:01:42,326 --> 01:01:44,326
Yeah, it sounds pretty good.
918
01:01:44,361 --> 01:01:46,262
-I can do better.
-
919
01:01:46,297 --> 01:01:49,034
It's like the perfect mixture
of gospel, blues...
920
01:01:49,069 --> 01:01:50,233
And sex.
921
01:01:51,336 --> 01:01:53,874
Baby, that's some of the best
singin' and playin'
922
01:01:53,909 --> 01:01:54,776
I've ever heard.
923
01:01:56,307 --> 01:01:58,340
I want to overdub some
backgrounds on the chorus.
924
01:01:58,375 --> 01:02:00,276
You know, I was
just thinkin' about that.
925
01:02:00,311 --> 01:02:01,882
We can bring in
some local talent...
926
01:02:01,917 --> 01:02:03,312
No, I want to do it.
927
01:02:03,347 --> 01:02:04,819
Okay, even better.
Save me some money.
928
01:02:05,184 --> 01:02:06,249
Jerry.
929
01:02:07,450 --> 01:02:08,757
Let me talk to you
for a moment.
930
01:02:08,792 --> 01:02:09,384
Okay, okay.
931
01:02:11,388 --> 01:02:13,157
Had a rocking thing on it.
932
01:02:13,192 --> 01:02:15,797
Yeah, it did.
-It was rocking.
933
01:02:15,832 --> 01:02:18,932
The way that I,
I love you
934
01:02:18,967 --> 01:02:20,967
I wasn't lookin' at nobody.
I was trying to do my work.
935
01:02:21,002 --> 01:02:23,332
He was looking at you.
936
01:02:23,367 --> 01:02:25,301
Thought he was gonna get him
some nigga tail.
937
01:02:25,336 --> 01:02:26,841
Pack the bags.
938
01:02:26,876 --> 01:02:28,172
It sounded good.
939
01:02:28,207 --> 01:02:29,371
Real good.
940
01:02:29,406 --> 01:02:30,944
It was really comin' together,
941
01:02:30,979 --> 01:02:33,045
and you had to show
your ignorant ass.
942
01:02:33,080 --> 01:02:34,849
I oughta leave you here
943
01:02:34,884 --> 01:02:36,818
and let those crackers
have a go at you.
944
01:02:38,888 --> 01:02:41,119
This was the best
I ever sounded.
945
01:02:41,154 --> 01:02:42,351
Couldn't you hear that?
946
01:02:44,421 --> 01:02:46,520
We'll finish this in New York.
947
01:02:46,555 --> 01:02:48,060
With my musicians.
948
01:02:48,095 --> 01:02:50,458
Your musicians ain't shit.
949
01:02:50,493 --> 01:02:52,460
You're not about
to mess this up for me.
950
01:02:52,495 --> 01:02:53,868
Where the hell
do you think you're going?
951
01:02:53,903 --> 01:02:54,869
I've waited
too long for this.
952
01:02:54,904 --> 01:02:56,068
Where the...
953
01:02:56,103 --> 01:02:57,201
Like hell you are.
954
01:02:58,304 --> 01:02:59,533
You don't know who you're
fucking with! Come here!
955
01:03:01,339 --> 01:03:03,240
-Ted, it's Rick Hall. Open up.
-
956
01:03:07,884 --> 01:03:09,510
This cracker here.
957
01:03:12,020 --> 01:03:13,349
Evenin'.
958
01:03:13,384 --> 01:03:14,515
May I come inside?
959
01:03:14,550 --> 01:03:15,351
No.
960
01:03:17,058 --> 01:03:19,256
I thought we should talk.
961
01:03:20,424 --> 01:03:22,996
I got nothin' to say
to your hillbilly ass.
962
01:03:23,031 --> 01:03:26,901
I wish you wouldn't
call me names.
963
01:03:26,936 --> 01:03:28,265
Do I call you names?
964
01:03:28,300 --> 01:03:31,367
And what would you
like to call me, whitey?
965
01:03:35,142 --> 01:03:37,912
I come here to make peace.
966
01:03:37,947 --> 01:03:41,047
No, I don't wanna make peace
with you, cracker.
967
01:03:44,184 --> 01:03:47,383
I come here
to tell you that I fired
968
01:03:47,418 --> 01:03:49,121
that horn player
who was troublin' you.
969
01:03:49,156 --> 01:03:51,486
And how'd it feel to take
orders from a nigger?
970
01:03:55,327 --> 01:03:57,327
You know,
971
01:03:57,362 --> 01:03:59,835
I don't hate you
'cause you're a...
972
01:04:01,564 --> 01:04:03,432
a Negro.
973
01:04:03,467 --> 01:04:07,073
I hate you 'cause
you're a giant asshole.
974
01:04:07,108 --> 01:04:08,943
Don't you ever step foot
975
01:04:08,978 --> 01:04:12,144
near my studio again,
all right?
976
01:04:12,179 --> 01:04:13,442
Miss Franklin,
you are welcome at any...
977
01:04:13,477 --> 01:04:15,213
Don't you talk
to my wife, cracker!
978
01:04:15,248 --> 01:04:17,017
Now, you keep pushin' me...
979
01:04:17,052 --> 01:04:18,414
Yeah, what you gonna do,
redneck?
980
01:04:18,449 --> 01:04:20,284
-And you keep pushin' me...
-Peckerwood!
981
01:04:20,319 --> 01:04:22,418
Now, you gonna "redneck" me
one more time,
982
01:04:22,453 --> 01:04:25,421
and you gonna "whitey" me
one more time,
983
01:04:25,456 --> 01:04:27,489
-and I'm gonna "nigger" you!
-
984
01:04:27,524 --> 01:04:29,029
Bitch,
call me a nigger again.
985
01:04:32,265 --> 01:04:33,902
Call me
a bitch again, huh.
986
01:04:33,937 --> 01:04:37,169
-You stupid! Ass! Bitch!
-
987
01:04:37,204 --> 01:04:39,270
-
988
01:05:09,005 --> 01:05:11,203
You hungry?
989
01:05:11,238 --> 01:05:12,501
I'm all right.
990
01:05:20,676 --> 01:05:22,544
Come on now, baby.
991
01:05:22,579 --> 01:05:24,480
Come on, come on.
Come to Grandma. Come on.
992
01:05:29,520 --> 01:05:31,586
Ree is home!
993
01:05:38,430 --> 01:05:39,627
That bastard.
994
01:05:39,662 --> 01:05:41,068
I'm gonna kill him.
995
01:05:55,216 --> 01:05:56,347
You here for long?
996
01:05:58,054 --> 01:06:00,087
I'm not sure.
997
01:06:01,156 --> 01:06:02,221
Hmm.
998
01:06:08,196 --> 01:06:11,164
when I come home
999
01:06:13,036 --> 01:06:14,266
-
1000
01:06:17,172 --> 01:06:18,600
Did Aretha Franklin call?
1001
01:06:18,635 --> 01:06:20,008
No.
-No?
1002
01:06:20,043 --> 01:06:21,141
Get it, Momma!
1003
01:06:24,608 --> 01:06:26,542
Call Ted White.
1004
01:06:28,480 --> 01:06:30,986
when I come home
1005
01:06:32,253 --> 01:06:33,714
Do that thing, Momma!
1006
01:06:33,749 --> 01:06:35,716
Just start callin' everybody
on that list.
1007
01:06:35,751 --> 01:06:37,487
Give me
more mashed potato.
1008
01:06:41,196 --> 01:06:43,163
-
1009
01:06:44,397 --> 01:06:45,726
Come on,
Mama Franklin!
1010
01:06:45,761 --> 01:06:47,464
-Now, let's see you dance!
-
1011
01:06:47,499 --> 01:06:49,631
- All right! Oop.
1012
01:06:49,666 --> 01:06:52,766
when I come home
1013
01:06:57,080 --> 01:06:57,738
Hello?
1014
01:07:00,380 --> 01:07:01,709
She isn't here.
1015
01:07:02,745 --> 01:07:04,679
And if you touch her
again, I'll...
1016
01:07:06,617 --> 01:07:07,682
Go to hell.
1017
01:07:11,094 --> 01:07:12,225
Okay.
1018
01:07:14,163 --> 01:07:18,198
Respect when I get home
1019
01:07:21,104 --> 01:07:23,203
-Mind if I sing with y'all?
-Me too!
1020
01:07:27,110 --> 01:07:30,177
That's what I need
1021
01:07:33,776 --> 01:07:36,348
Your momma cut her
first record at that store.
1022
01:07:36,383 --> 01:07:37,349
Jesus Be A Fence.
1023
01:07:38,517 --> 01:07:41,353
Folks lined up
around the block to buy it.
1024
01:07:41,388 --> 01:07:43,652
They lined up to buy
your records, too.
1025
01:07:43,687 --> 01:07:45,225
Ha. I'm about
to tell 'em that story now.
1026
01:07:45,260 --> 01:07:47,260
-Momma...
-
1027
01:07:47,295 --> 01:07:49,229
-Ain't that...
-Don't say "ain't."
1028
01:07:51,299 --> 01:07:52,727
But ain't that you singing?
1029
01:07:57,536 --> 01:07:59,437
They... They released that?
1030
01:07:59,472 --> 01:08:00,636
if I could
1031
01:08:00,671 --> 01:08:01,703
All right!
1032
01:08:01,738 --> 01:08:03,342
-
1033
01:08:06,677 --> 01:08:08,578
It's a hit!
1034
01:08:08,613 --> 01:08:10,778
Ree, it sounds wonderful.
1035
01:08:11,616 --> 01:08:13,517
Don't you think so, baby?
1036
01:08:14,487 --> 01:08:16,256
It's amazing, Ree.
1037
01:08:16,291 --> 01:08:18,390
That's my sister!
-It's amazing.
1038
01:08:18,425 --> 01:08:20,656
That's your momma
singing! That's amazing!
1039
01:08:23,694 --> 01:08:24,759
That's your
momma singing!
1040
01:08:29,304 --> 01:08:30,435
Hello?
1041
01:08:30,470 --> 01:08:32,140
Mr. Wexler,
1042
01:08:32,175 --> 01:08:33,702
I'm ready to record.
1043
01:08:33,737 --> 01:08:34,703
Oh.
1044
01:08:35,178 --> 01:08:36,606
Thank God.
1045
01:08:36,641 --> 01:08:39,411
I want to record with
the Muscle Shoals band.
1046
01:08:39,446 --> 01:08:41,215
Those boys have soul.
1047
01:08:41,250 --> 01:08:43,712
Yes, they do. They do.
1048
01:08:43,747 --> 01:08:46,418
And I want to provide
the backup singers.
1049
01:08:50,424 --> 01:08:52,523
-
1050
01:08:52,558 --> 01:08:55,691
-
1051
01:09:01,336 --> 01:09:04,271
it's a man's world
1052
01:09:06,209 --> 01:09:09,210
by me
1053
01:09:11,676 --> 01:09:15,183
we're together, baby
1054
01:09:19,651 --> 01:09:23,587
'Cause if you
want a do-right
-
1055
01:09:23,622 --> 01:09:26,359
-
1056
01:09:40,738 --> 01:09:44,344
-
my brother
1057
01:09:52,453 --> 01:09:54,618
Sorry.
1058
01:09:54,653 --> 01:09:56,653
You can't treat me like that.
1059
01:10:00,395 --> 01:10:01,526
I know.
1060
01:10:07,798 --> 01:10:09,633
I got demons too, Ree.
1061
01:10:12,407 --> 01:10:13,637
Can you help me fight mine
1062
01:10:13,672 --> 01:10:15,342
the way I help you
fight yours?
1063
01:10:16,939 --> 01:10:18,477
Please.
1064
01:10:20,415 --> 01:10:21,810
I'm so sorry.
1065
01:10:28,687 --> 01:10:30,621
I will help you, baby.
1066
01:10:33,890 --> 01:10:35,527
I love you so much.
1067
01:10:36,332 --> 01:10:37,892
I love you, too.
1068
01:10:41,304 --> 01:10:46,406
all right with me
1069
01:10:46,441 --> 01:10:49,904
every once in a while
1070
01:10:59,619 --> 01:11:01,421
Ree, we've been talkin'.
1071
01:11:01,456 --> 01:11:03,555
How's Clara doin'?
1072
01:11:03,590 --> 01:11:04,952
-She's fine.
-She's good.
1073
01:11:04,987 --> 01:11:06,822
Is Daddy ever
gonna marry Clara?
1074
01:11:09,497 --> 01:11:10,859
I'm surprised
she's stayed this long.
1075
01:11:10,894 --> 01:11:13,730
Why would she leave?
They're church royalty.
1076
01:11:16,999 --> 01:11:19,670
The same reason
they all leave.
1077
01:11:20,409 --> 01:11:22,343
Same reason Momma left.
1078
01:11:23,643 --> 01:11:25,544
The same reason
you need to leave Ted.
1079
01:11:27,614 --> 01:11:30,384
Ted is nothing like Daddy.
1080
01:11:30,419 --> 01:11:31,616
The way you two go at it?
1081
01:11:31,651 --> 01:11:33,453
Just like Momma and Daddy.
1082
01:11:33,488 --> 01:11:34,982
Momma and Daddy didn't fight.
1083
01:11:38,955 --> 01:11:40,625
Wait...
1084
01:11:40,660 --> 01:11:42,429
You're not joking?
1085
01:11:43,498 --> 01:11:45,762
-Joking about what?
-You don't remember?
1086
01:11:45,797 --> 01:11:48,369
Even I remember,
and I was just three or four.
1087
01:11:48,404 --> 01:11:50,030
Remember what?
1088
01:11:50,065 --> 01:11:51,801
Aretha,
1089
01:11:51,836 --> 01:11:54,034
we used to climb up
on the roof
1090
01:11:54,069 --> 01:11:57,444
and sing as loud as we could
to drown them out.
1091
01:11:58,447 --> 01:12:00,612
How could you forget?
1092
01:12:00,647 --> 01:12:02,449
I still have nightmares
about it.
1093
01:12:04,915 --> 01:12:07,718
Well, I was glad
when Momma finally left.
1094
01:12:33,075 --> 01:12:34,910
Why did you leave?
1095
01:12:36,452 --> 01:12:37,616
You don't remember?
1096
01:12:37,948 --> 01:12:39,420
Remember what?
1097
01:12:41,820 --> 01:12:42,885
Nothing.
1098
01:13:06,482 --> 01:13:07,646
What are you doing?
1099
01:13:08,143 --> 01:13:09,384
Get Erma.
1100
01:13:11,454 --> 01:13:12,816
Sure thing.
1101
01:13:43,145 --> 01:13:48,016
For
1102
01:13:52,022 --> 01:13:53,153
Give me...
1103
01:14:09,039 --> 01:14:10,742
One more time.
1104
01:14:14,044 --> 01:14:15,043
Go a third below, Carolyn.
1105
01:14:16,618 --> 01:14:17,683
Yeah.
1106
01:14:18,818 --> 01:14:19,883
Yes.
1107
01:14:21,051 --> 01:14:22,215
Yeah.
1108
01:14:26,529 --> 01:14:28,188
-
1109
01:14:28,223 --> 01:14:30,091
-
1110
01:14:30,126 --> 01:14:32,060
-
1111
01:14:33,195 --> 01:14:34,568
Oh, Big Mama...
1112
01:14:34,603 --> 01:14:35,734
What the hell?
1113
01:14:36,704 --> 01:14:37,934
It's almost 3:00 a.m.
1114
01:14:39,069 --> 01:14:40,838
We're writin' a hit song.
1115
01:14:40,873 --> 01:14:42,070
It's Otis Redding's song.
1116
01:14:43,843 --> 01:14:46,173
-Just a little bit.
-
1117
01:14:53,556 --> 01:14:54,918
Oh, God.
1118
01:14:54,953 --> 01:14:56,656
You really like it?
1119
01:14:56,691 --> 01:14:57,921
-It's wonderful, Ree.
-It's great.
1120
01:14:58,594 --> 01:14:59,824
You're sure?
1121
01:14:59,859 --> 01:15:01,793
Don't do that.
1122
01:15:01,828 --> 01:15:02,761
Y'all tell me
1123
01:15:02,796 --> 01:15:04,191
-if you don't really like it.
-I like it.
1124
01:15:04,765 --> 01:15:05,962
-I love it.
-We love it, Ree.
1125
01:15:05,997 --> 01:15:07,733
Ree-Ree.
1126
01:15:07,768 --> 01:15:09,933
-Re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re-re.
-
1127
01:15:09,968 --> 01:15:11,605
-Ree.
-
1128
01:15:14,236 --> 01:15:16,841
-
1129
01:15:19,109 --> 01:15:22,847
Re-re-re-re
1130
01:15:22,882 --> 01:15:24,277
That's really good.
1131
01:15:24,312 --> 01:15:25,949
Just a little bit
1132
01:15:25,984 --> 01:15:27,049
Yeah!
1133
01:15:27,722 --> 01:15:29,216
What a line!
1134
01:15:31,154 --> 01:15:33,627
what it means to me
1135
01:15:39,602 --> 01:15:43,032
All right.
- Here we go. Yeah.
1136
01:15:43,067 --> 01:15:44,968
I need a Harlem bassline,
Tommy.
1137
01:15:45,003 --> 01:15:46,838
-Not Alabama.
-
1138
01:15:46,873 --> 01:15:48,642
Well, I ain't been
to Harlem yet.
1139
01:15:48,677 --> 01:15:50,237
But let's funk it up.
1140
01:15:52,681 --> 01:15:54,978
That's nice.
1141
01:15:55,013 --> 01:15:56,815
-
1142
01:15:58,621 --> 01:16:00,819
That is groovy!
1143
01:16:02,020 --> 01:16:05,087
Come on in, Spooner.
What ya got?
1144
01:16:07,223 --> 01:16:09,190
-Yeah!
1145
01:16:09,225 --> 01:16:10,796
I'm gonna keep it simple.
1146
01:16:10,831 --> 01:16:13,128
Like you always do.
1147
01:16:13,163 --> 01:16:14,932
All right.
- That's groovy.
1148
01:16:14,967 --> 01:16:17,132
I dig that.
-Oh, it's her song now.
1149
01:16:17,805 --> 01:16:19,871
-Otis who?
-
1150
01:16:19,906 --> 01:16:21,873
- Solo? Okay.
1151
01:16:31,819 --> 01:16:33,885
All right!
1152
01:16:33,920 --> 01:16:36,118
-
1153
01:16:52,070 --> 01:16:56,171
Baby, I got it
1154
01:16:56,206 --> 01:16:59,845
You know I got it?
1155
01:17:02,014 --> 01:17:04,212
when you come home
1156
01:17:04,247 --> 01:17:06,148
-
1157
01:17:06,183 --> 01:17:07,952
-
1158
01:17:07,987 --> 01:17:11,956
Just a little bit
1159
01:17:11,991 --> 01:17:15,960
while you gone
1160
01:17:15,995 --> 01:17:20,096
'cause I don't wanna
1161
01:17:22,034 --> 01:17:23,935
when you come home
1162
01:17:23,970 --> 01:17:25,871
-
1163
01:17:25,906 --> 01:17:27,741
-
1164
01:17:27,776 --> 01:17:29,204
-
1165
01:17:31,340 --> 01:17:34,374
all of my money
1166
01:17:34,409 --> 01:17:39,687
in return, honey
1167
01:17:39,722 --> 01:17:43,691
when you get home
1168
01:17:45,926 --> 01:17:47,827
When you get home
1169
01:17:47,862 --> 01:17:49,257
-
1170
01:17:52,130 --> 01:17:54,328
-
1171
01:18:09,752 --> 01:18:11,983
-
1172
01:18:12,018 --> 01:18:14,887
So is my money
1173
01:18:16,923 --> 01:18:18,385
to do for me
1174
01:18:20,763 --> 01:18:23,731
Bring it to me
1175
01:18:25,493 --> 01:18:27,163
-
1176
01:18:27,198 --> 01:18:31,167
Find out what it means to me
1177
01:18:31,202 --> 01:18:35,138
Take care, TCB
1178
01:18:35,173 --> 01:18:37,404
sock it to me, sock it to me
1179
01:18:37,439 --> 01:18:39,879
sock it to me, sock it to me
1180
01:18:40,915 --> 01:18:43,047
-
1181
01:18:43,082 --> 01:18:45,115
-
1182
01:18:45,150 --> 01:18:46,952
-
1183
01:18:46,987 --> 01:18:48,723
-
1184
01:18:57,833 --> 01:19:02,033
Aretha! Aretha! Aretha!
1185
01:19:04,103 --> 01:19:08,039
Aretha! Aretha! Aretha!
1186
01:19:08,074 --> 01:19:10,206
Aretha! Aretha!
1187
01:19:13,948 --> 01:19:17,477
-
1188
01:19:17,512 --> 01:19:21,085
to run you away
1189
01:19:23,023 --> 01:19:25,320
-Smokey!
-
1190
01:19:25,355 --> 01:19:27,927
Nobody is talking
about Motown anymore.
1191
01:19:27,962 --> 01:19:30,930
All they want to talk about
is Aretha Franklin.
1192
01:19:31,295 --> 01:19:32,965
You did it, Ree.
1193
01:19:33,000 --> 01:19:34,527
-I did it.
-Yes, you did.
1194
01:19:36,201 --> 01:19:38,806
what I'm gonna do
1195
01:19:44,847 --> 01:19:46,077
What did you wish for?
1196
01:19:46,508 --> 01:19:47,947
More hits.
1197
01:19:50,545 --> 01:19:53,953
Aretha Franklin,
you are the Queen of Soul.
1198
01:19:57,992 --> 01:20:00,058
Why'd you have to do it?
1199
01:20:00,093 --> 01:20:02,896
-
1200
01:20:02,931 --> 01:20:05,492
What is soul music?
1201
01:20:05,527 --> 01:20:06,966
The musician having
the biggest influence
1202
01:20:07,001 --> 01:20:07,967
on this genre
1203
01:20:09,234 --> 01:20:10,530
is Grammy-winning soul singer,
Aretha Franklin.
1204
01:20:13,139 --> 01:20:14,875
From a young age,
1205
01:20:14,910 --> 01:20:18,241
I saw Aretha possess
extraordinary talent.
1206
01:20:18,276 --> 01:20:21,211
Ted is my husband, manager,
and favorite critic.
1207
01:20:21,609 --> 01:20:23,378
Hello, Ted.
1208
01:20:23,413 --> 01:20:25,512
Right now, gospel is
the main influence
1209
01:20:25,547 --> 01:20:27,580
on contemporary
rhythm and blues,
1210
01:20:27,615 --> 01:20:30,583
and that's due to Aretha.
Others have mixed
1211
01:20:30,618 --> 01:20:33,861
gospel and so-called
secular music before her,
1212
01:20:33,896 --> 01:20:35,423
but Aretha puts
a unique spin on it
1213
01:20:35,458 --> 01:20:37,865
that people can relate to.
1214
01:20:37,900 --> 01:20:40,329
It's always great
when families sing together
1215
01:20:40,364 --> 01:20:43,134
because there's a language
between siblings
1216
01:20:43,169 --> 01:20:46,874
that you can't recreate
with just hired hands.
1217
01:20:46,909 --> 01:20:51,142
Ain't No Way is a song
written by Carolyn for Aretha,
1218
01:20:51,177 --> 01:20:54,442
and something Aretha
can relate to because,
1219
01:20:54,477 --> 01:20:57,016
I think, they know
each other so well.
1220
01:20:57,051 --> 01:20:59,414
Show me how the melody
goes in the verse.
1221
01:21:14,662 --> 01:21:16,035
That's it.
1222
01:21:16,070 --> 01:21:17,432
Let me try.
1223
01:21:45,495 --> 01:21:49,464
all you need
1224
01:21:52,040 --> 01:21:55,976
give all of me
1225
01:22:11,290 --> 01:22:15,589
it was planned
1226
01:22:18,726 --> 01:22:21,034
-
1227
01:22:25,667 --> 01:22:29,207
all the things I can
1228
01:22:45,159 --> 01:22:47,995
Yeah
1229
01:23:20,788 --> 01:23:25,527
someone you're not
1230
01:23:35,077 --> 01:23:38,276
for what he got?
1231
01:23:40,511 --> 01:23:45,613
like you say
1232
01:23:48,387 --> 01:23:52,752
Please, please
1233
01:23:52,787 --> 01:23:57,394
that I need you?
1234
01:24:19,781 --> 01:24:21,781
So it fades right here?
1235
01:24:21,816 --> 01:24:23,783
You genius you.
1236
01:24:27,162 --> 01:24:29,228
You really feelin' this one,
aren't you, Ree?
1237
01:24:29,263 --> 01:24:31,362
-I love it.
-
1238
01:24:32,530 --> 01:24:33,727
I can tell.
1239
01:24:34,664 --> 01:24:38,567
See, so, she's just
being completely honest
1240
01:24:39,537 --> 01:24:41,669
in a song about
what she feels
1241
01:24:41,704 --> 01:24:43,770
at any given moment.
1242
01:24:43,805 --> 01:24:45,409
And that's why
the audience relates to her.
1243
01:24:46,610 --> 01:24:49,578
I'm still trying
to figure out who I am.
1244
01:24:49,613 --> 01:24:51,547
I'm not sure yet,
1245
01:24:51,582 --> 01:24:53,615
but I'm trying
to find the answer.
1246
01:25:02,428 --> 01:25:07,266
Now, I am here
to honor Aretha.
1247
01:25:08,566 --> 01:25:12,205
Or Ree, as I like
to call her...
1248
01:25:12,240 --> 01:25:15,505
...for her tireless work
for the Civil Rights Movement.
1249
01:25:16,607 --> 01:25:18,409
Every time
1250
01:25:18,444 --> 01:25:22,545
I ask Aretha to sing
at a fundraiser,
1251
01:25:22,580 --> 01:25:25,548
church event, or a conference,
1252
01:25:25,583 --> 01:25:26,681
she shows up.
1253
01:25:28,487 --> 01:25:31,818
No matter where she is
or what she's doing,
1254
01:25:31,853 --> 01:25:34,689
-she always answers the call.
-
1255
01:25:34,724 --> 01:25:38,363
And I am honored
to present Aretha
1256
01:25:38,398 --> 01:25:41,465
with this proclamation today.
1257
01:25:46,769 --> 01:25:50,309
And I wish that every day
1258
01:25:50,344 --> 01:25:52,674
was Aretha Franklin Day!
1259
01:25:53,743 --> 01:25:56,249
We love you, Aretha!
1260
01:25:56,284 --> 01:25:57,316
After all of that,
1261
01:25:58,419 --> 01:26:00,352
there's really only one thing
left to say, right?
1262
01:26:13,235 --> 01:26:17,171
on the mornin' rain
1263
01:26:19,274 --> 01:26:23,441
so uninspired
1264
01:26:24,807 --> 01:26:27,544
-
1265
01:26:31,814 --> 01:26:35,222
so tired
1266
01:26:44,299 --> 01:26:47,861
to my peace of mind
1267
01:26:51,933 --> 01:26:54,736
-
1268
01:27:04,847 --> 01:27:08,255
what you've done to me
1269
01:27:10,952 --> 01:27:15,328
so good inside
1270
01:27:23,404 --> 01:27:27,769
You make me feel so alive
1271
01:27:33,645 --> 01:27:36,283
Excuse me, Miss Franklin.
1272
01:27:36,318 --> 01:27:37,317
I'm so sorry to bother you,
1273
01:27:37,353 --> 01:27:38,813
-but I just have to tell you.
-It's all right.
1274
01:27:38,848 --> 01:27:39,747
When you sing,
1275
01:27:41,081 --> 01:27:42,949
I feel like you are
talking about my life.
1276
01:27:42,984 --> 01:27:45,985
It helps me,
because it is hard out here.
1277
01:27:46,020 --> 01:27:47,954
But I feel like
you understand,
1278
01:27:47,989 --> 01:27:50,660
and, well, I just
have to thank you.
1279
01:27:51,729 --> 01:27:53,267
Stay strong.
1280
01:27:54,732 --> 01:27:56,303
Okay.
1281
01:27:56,338 --> 01:27:58,437
Yes, thank you.
Thank you very much.
1282
01:27:58,472 --> 01:27:59,605
We have to go now.
1283
01:28:03,477 --> 01:28:06,940
I'm flying to Atlanta tomorrow
to do a benefit for SNCC.
1284
01:28:10,484 --> 01:28:11,945
Cancel it.
1285
01:28:13,421 --> 01:28:15,751
I have some meetings
and interviews lined up.
1286
01:28:16,083 --> 01:28:17,522
No.
1287
01:28:17,557 --> 01:28:19,887
Daddy and Martin
asked me to do it.
1288
01:28:19,922 --> 01:28:21,823
-I'm going.
-
1289
01:28:38,512 --> 01:28:39,676
Aretha!
1290
01:28:39,711 --> 01:28:41,381
Jerry.
1291
01:28:41,416 --> 01:28:42,745
Oh, I love
when you call me Jerry.
1292
01:28:42,780 --> 01:28:43,878
It means you're not mad at me.
1293
01:28:43,913 --> 01:28:45,011
Hello, Ted.
1294
01:28:45,046 --> 01:28:46,518
Jerry.
1295
01:28:46,553 --> 01:28:48,047
Come on in.
1296
01:28:48,082 --> 01:28:50,753
Everyone wants you,
Miss Franklin.
1297
01:28:50,788 --> 01:28:53,426
We've got interest in France,
England, Germany...
1298
01:28:53,461 --> 01:28:54,823
All right, we don't
have to name every country.
1299
01:28:54,858 --> 01:28:56,660
All of Europe.
1300
01:28:56,695 --> 01:28:58,090
The entire continent wants you
1301
01:28:58,125 --> 01:28:59,696
and I think we should
schedule something.
1302
01:28:59,731 --> 01:29:00,928
We should schedule a tour
1303
01:29:00,963 --> 01:29:02,534
that coincides
with the new album.
1304
01:29:02,569 --> 01:29:04,063
We could do that
or we could send her out now
1305
01:29:04,098 --> 01:29:05,669
to create an appetite
for the new record.
1306
01:29:05,704 --> 01:29:07,066
I think that's best.
1307
01:29:07,101 --> 01:29:08,573
I have six venues
ready to clear this...
1308
01:29:08,608 --> 01:29:09,376
And who are you,
1309
01:29:10,412 --> 01:29:12,005
brother?
1310
01:29:13,976 --> 01:29:17,417
Ken Cunningham.
I'm the tour manager.
1311
01:29:18,585 --> 01:29:20,585
Tour manager?
1312
01:29:20,620 --> 01:29:21,520
So, you already
booked the tour?
1313
01:29:21,555 --> 01:29:22,917
It's not booked.
1314
01:29:22,952 --> 01:29:24,754
No, he said
the venues was ready.
1315
01:29:24,789 --> 01:29:26,151
That's right. They were
available if we want 'em.
1316
01:29:26,186 --> 01:29:27,856
You have to gauge
interest early for it.
1317
01:29:27,891 --> 01:29:29,429
-I know how a tour works.
- Okay.
1318
01:29:29,464 --> 01:29:31,563
-No.
-No what?
1319
01:29:31,598 --> 01:29:33,059
No European tour dates.
1320
01:29:33,094 --> 01:29:34,093
Why not?
1321
01:29:34,128 --> 01:29:35,864
Because
1322
01:29:35,899 --> 01:29:37,668
we have some TV dates
we'd like to schedule first.
1323
01:29:37,703 --> 01:29:39,538
Oh, yeah? With whom?
1324
01:29:39,573 --> 01:29:43,410
Carol Burnett, Andy Williams.
Mike Douglas.
1325
01:29:43,445 --> 01:29:45,071
All right. So, those shows
will be there
1326
01:29:45,106 --> 01:29:46,105
when she gets back.
1327
01:29:46,140 --> 01:29:47,678
We have a chance here
1328
01:29:47,713 --> 01:29:49,878
to expand her reach
around the world.
1329
01:29:49,913 --> 01:29:52,078
To make her
a global superstar.
1330
01:29:52,113 --> 01:29:55,114
Do you know what
a rare opportunity that is?
1331
01:29:55,149 --> 01:29:56,885
We're considering
some movie offers as well.
1332
01:29:56,920 --> 01:29:58,117
Movies?
1333
01:29:58,152 --> 01:29:59,954
Aretha. You wanna do movies?
1334
01:30:01,188 --> 01:30:02,594
I think I could.
1335
01:30:02,629 --> 01:30:04,431
Of course you could.
1336
01:30:04,466 --> 01:30:06,059
You could do
any damn thing you want.
1337
01:30:07,997 --> 01:30:09,832
You thought you could
just bring us in here,
1338
01:30:09,867 --> 01:30:11,735
tell us where to go,
what to do,
1339
01:30:11,770 --> 01:30:13,099
and send us on our way?
1340
01:30:13,134 --> 01:30:14,540
You should know by now, Jerry,
1341
01:30:14,575 --> 01:30:16,476
that is not the way
I do business.
1342
01:30:16,511 --> 01:30:19,875
Ken, how much money
could Aretha make on the tour?
1343
01:30:19,910 --> 01:30:21,074
Quarter of a million.
1344
01:30:22,913 --> 01:30:24,814
Carol Burnett
payin' that?
1345
01:30:25,553 --> 01:30:28,488
Movies payin' that?
1346
01:30:28,523 --> 01:30:31,854
We'll consider it.
With the right band.
1347
01:30:31,889 --> 01:30:33,757
All right.
1348
01:30:33,792 --> 01:30:35,759
Well, the Muscle Shoals guys
have started their own label.
1349
01:30:35,794 --> 01:30:37,530
King Curtis is ready to go.
1350
01:30:37,565 --> 01:30:39,499
-Curtis is rockin'.
- He's perfect for you.
1351
01:30:39,534 --> 01:30:41,996
Curtis is good, but I've got
some people lined up.
1352
01:30:42,031 --> 01:30:43,129
Really? Five minutes ago,
1353
01:30:43,164 --> 01:30:44,537
you didn't wanna
go on this tour.
1354
01:30:44,572 --> 01:30:45,769
Now, you've got
people lined up?
1355
01:30:46,233 --> 01:30:47,870
Check the tone, Jerry.
1356
01:30:47,905 --> 01:30:50,004
Just take it easy, Ted.
1357
01:30:50,039 --> 01:30:54,074
I'm sorry.
Forgive me for my tone.
1358
01:30:54,109 --> 01:30:56,483
What musicians
do you have lined up, Ted?
1359
01:30:57,046 --> 01:30:59,145
George Davidson.
1360
01:30:59,180 --> 01:31:01,752
Miller Brisker.
Russell Conway.
1361
01:31:01,787 --> 01:31:04,755
All right. You can't have
the premier singer of our time
1362
01:31:04,790 --> 01:31:07,527
touring Europe with a ragtag
bunch of amateurs
1363
01:31:07,562 --> 01:31:10,222
suitable for backing
some third-rate blues singer
1364
01:31:10,257 --> 01:31:12,191
in a bucket of blood
in Loserville, Louisiana.
1365
01:31:12,226 --> 01:31:14,897
I want to use Ted's musicians,
Mr. Wexler.
1366
01:31:14,932 --> 01:31:16,701
"Mr. Wexler"?
1367
01:31:16,736 --> 01:31:19,506
Oh, God. Aretha, please.
1368
01:31:19,541 --> 01:31:20,340
Can we move on
1369
01:31:21,576 --> 01:31:22,806
to the next item
on the agenda, please?
1370
01:31:28,242 --> 01:31:31,012
Whatever you say,
Miss Franklin.
1371
01:31:35,117 --> 01:31:36,919
So, they do
this funny thing in Amsterdam
1372
01:31:36,954 --> 01:31:38,492
when they really
love a performer.
1373
01:31:39,088 --> 01:31:41,055
They pelt them with flowers.
1374
01:31:41,090 --> 01:31:42,727
Pardon me.
1375
01:31:42,762 --> 01:31:44,025
I warned them not
to get too crazy with it,
1376
01:31:44,060 --> 01:31:45,290
but you might
get hit with a few.
1377
01:31:45,325 --> 01:31:46,830
After the show, please.
After the show.
1378
01:31:46,865 --> 01:31:47,798
Right through this door.
1379
01:31:49,703 --> 01:31:51,571
Watch your step.
1380
01:31:51,606 --> 01:31:53,001
-
1381
01:32:15,058 --> 01:32:17,058
in your chain
1382
01:32:22,131 --> 01:32:24,131
but your fool
1383
01:32:33,681 --> 01:32:36,913
-
1384
01:32:50,225 --> 01:32:53,732
you strength
1385
01:32:56,638 --> 01:32:59,606
to leave you alone
1386
01:32:59,641 --> 01:33:01,608
Fix this
or I'll have your job.
1387
01:33:01,643 --> 01:33:03,940
My father said,
"Come on home"
1388
01:33:03,975 --> 01:33:07,273
"Take it easy"
1389
01:33:07,308 --> 01:33:09,649
-
1390
01:33:15,052 --> 01:33:16,920
Aretha! Aretha!
1391
01:33:20,959 --> 01:33:23,762
Can you comment on the recent
Time magazine cover story?
1392
01:33:24,391 --> 01:33:26,160
Oh, I haven't read it yet,
1393
01:33:26,195 --> 01:33:28,030
but it is a great honor
to grace the cover
1394
01:33:28,065 --> 01:33:29,900
of such
a prestigious magazine.
1395
01:33:32,674 --> 01:33:34,905
This Time article
says that your husband
1396
01:33:34,940 --> 01:33:36,709
beat you in a hotel lobby.
1397
01:33:36,744 --> 01:33:37,303
Excuse me?
1398
01:33:43,410 --> 01:33:45,047
Is this true?
1399
01:33:45,082 --> 01:33:47,049
No more questions!
Let's go!
1400
01:33:47,084 --> 01:33:48,952
-Move.
1401
01:33:52,386 --> 01:33:53,693
It's a lie!
1402
01:33:54,828 --> 01:33:56,795
It's a dirty lie!
1403
01:33:56,830 --> 01:33:58,159
Get off! Come here!
1404
01:33:59,360 --> 01:34:02,834
No, that's too low.
I want $10 million.
1405
01:34:08,743 --> 01:34:11,040
They're gonna be sorry
they wrote this shit.
1406
01:34:11,779 --> 01:34:13,042
And you know, your daddy,
1407
01:34:13,077 --> 01:34:15,209
he doesn't come across
too well either.
1408
01:34:15,244 --> 01:34:16,815
He may wanna sue 'em
his damn self.
1409
01:34:16,850 --> 01:34:18,179
How are you gonna prove
that you didn't hit me?
1410
01:34:20,018 --> 01:34:22,183
You did and everyone saw it!
1411
01:34:24,187 --> 01:34:26,990
Another man would
have killed you by now.
1412
01:34:27,025 --> 01:34:28,728
Crazy way you act.
1413
01:34:30,996 --> 01:34:32,259
Get out of my way.
1414
01:34:32,294 --> 01:34:33,964
What are you gonna do, huh?
What are you gonna do?
1415
01:34:33,999 --> 01:34:34,899
I mean it.
1416
01:34:36,771 --> 01:34:38,133
You would still be singing
1417
01:34:38,168 --> 01:34:39,673
some Al Jolson shit
if it wasn't for me.
1418
01:34:40,500 --> 01:34:42,676
-I wrote half your hits.
-
1419
01:34:44,009 --> 01:34:45,437
Are you laughing at me?
1420
01:34:45,472 --> 01:34:47,208
You know damn well
you didn't write one word.
1421
01:34:47,914 --> 01:34:49,782
One note of anything.
1422
01:34:49,817 --> 01:34:51,278
I just let you put
your name on it
1423
01:34:51,313 --> 01:34:52,851
to keep you
from throwing a fit.
1424
01:34:52,886 --> 01:34:54,919
I Never Loved A Man
came from me.
1425
01:34:54,954 --> 01:34:56,723
My songwriter!
1426
01:34:56,758 --> 01:34:59,726
That song wasn't anything
until I rearranged it.
1427
01:34:59,761 --> 01:35:02,388
And I sang the hell out of it
because it was about you.
1428
01:35:02,423 --> 01:35:05,424
You're a lying, no good,
1429
01:35:05,459 --> 01:35:08,801
just useless, psychopath.
1430
01:35:08,836 --> 01:35:10,968
-No!
1431
01:35:15,810 --> 01:35:17,304
I'm done with you.
1432
01:35:19,473 --> 01:35:22,210
Yeah, you've said that before.
1433
01:35:22,245 --> 01:35:23,915
You wait until
your demons come back!
1434
01:35:25,314 --> 01:35:27,116
After livin' with you,
1435
01:35:28,218 --> 01:35:30,053
I'm ready for 'em.
1436
01:36:02,219 --> 01:36:05,121
This song goes out
1437
01:36:05,156 --> 01:36:09,290
to anyone who has
ever felt mistreated.
1438
01:36:11,965 --> 01:36:13,833
Two, three, four.
1439
01:36:13,868 --> 01:36:15,934
-
1440
01:36:21,106 --> 01:36:22,974
-
1441
01:36:23,009 --> 01:36:25,141
you're trying to do to me
1442
01:36:25,176 --> 01:36:26,945
-
1443
01:36:26,980 --> 01:36:29,409
Let yourself be free
1444
01:36:29,444 --> 01:36:31,147
let's go back
1445
01:36:31,182 --> 01:36:33,347
way back when
1446
01:36:34,988 --> 01:36:36,251
too much more than 10
1447
01:36:38,321 --> 01:36:41,157
I ain't no doctor with degree
1448
01:36:41,192 --> 01:36:43,489
too much high IQ
1449
01:36:43,524 --> 01:36:45,326
you're doing to me
1450
01:36:45,361 --> 01:36:47,229
-
1451
01:36:47,264 --> 01:36:49,099
you're trying to do to me
1452
01:36:49,134 --> 01:36:50,870
-
1453
01:36:50,905 --> 01:36:52,938
let yourself be free
1454
01:36:52,973 --> 01:36:55,303
-
1455
01:36:55,338 --> 01:36:57,272
-
1456
01:37:19,065 --> 01:37:22,561
You, think about it
1457
01:37:22,596 --> 01:37:24,299
you could ask
1458
01:37:24,334 --> 01:37:25,366
with I won't
1459
01:37:27,205 --> 01:37:28,974
but I'm not
1460
01:37:29,009 --> 01:37:30,602
doing things I don't
1461
01:37:30,637 --> 01:37:32,505
-
1462
01:37:32,540 --> 01:37:34,276
you're trying to do to me
1463
01:37:34,311 --> 01:37:36,047
-
1464
01:37:36,082 --> 01:37:37,917
let yourself be free
1465
01:37:37,952 --> 01:37:40,117
-
1466
01:37:40,152 --> 01:37:42,449
-
1467
01:37:42,484 --> 01:37:46,585
There ain't nothing we can do
1468
01:37:46,620 --> 01:37:48,554
Think about it right now
1469
01:37:50,261 --> 01:37:52,195
-
1470
01:37:58,467 --> 01:38:00,401
-
1471
01:38:49,287 --> 01:38:50,451
Thank you.
1472
01:39:16,281 --> 01:39:18,578
I have some trash
I need taken downstairs.
1473
01:39:19,284 --> 01:39:22,120
Right now, please.
1474
01:39:42,175 --> 01:39:43,636
Just come over.
1475
01:39:45,607 --> 01:39:47,310
I know.
1476
01:39:49,578 --> 01:39:51,380
I don't care.
1477
01:39:53,450 --> 01:39:54,647
Just...
1478
01:39:55,749 --> 01:39:57,419
be with me.
1479
01:40:33,391 --> 01:40:35,292
You sure
that ain't too much, Ree?
1480
01:40:35,327 --> 01:40:38,493
Listen, you're about
to have the meal of your life.
1481
01:40:38,528 --> 01:40:39,758
She put
her foot in there. Smell it.
1482
01:40:39,793 --> 01:40:41,595
Yes, I did,
yes, I did.
1483
01:40:41,630 --> 01:40:43,201
-She put somethin' in there.
-Put her foot in, she did.
1484
01:40:43,236 --> 01:40:44,565
I don't know.
That smells funny.
1485
01:40:44,600 --> 01:40:45,833
-Darlin', get outta there.
1486
01:40:45,868 --> 01:40:47,370
-You want me to get that, Ree?
- Yes, answer. Get...
1487
01:40:47,405 --> 01:40:48,173
Get outta here!
1488
01:40:50,309 --> 01:40:50,802
All right, put it back.
1489
01:40:50,837 --> 01:40:51,704
Hello?
1490
01:40:52,575 --> 01:40:54,773
And that's me.
1491
01:40:54,808 --> 01:40:57,743
This will bring Big Mama
to her knees, honey.
1492
01:40:57,778 --> 01:40:59,118
You goin' to Hell
for that.
1493
01:40:59,153 --> 01:40:59,745
Hey.
1494
01:41:01,254 --> 01:41:02,649
She knows.
1495
01:41:04,191 --> 01:41:05,586
No, no, no.
1496
01:41:07,557 --> 01:41:09,326
-No, no, no.
- What's wrong?
1497
01:41:10,692 --> 01:41:11,592
What's wrong?
1498
01:41:16,698 --> 01:41:17,598
Hello?
1499
01:41:18,568 --> 01:41:20,205
What is it?
1500
01:41:21,538 --> 01:41:22,603
What?
1501
01:41:25,839 --> 01:41:27,740
-What?
-It's Martin.
1502
01:41:28,545 --> 01:41:30,281
They...
1503
01:41:30,316 --> 01:41:32,778
Oh, God.
- They shot him.
1504
01:41:32,813 --> 01:41:35,154
Oh, God.
1505
01:41:35,189 --> 01:41:38,388
I wanna
say it one more time
1506
01:43:41,546 --> 01:43:43,942
He kept telling me
1507
01:43:43,977 --> 01:43:45,746
that they were gonna get him.
1508
01:43:47,585 --> 01:43:52,258
But I said, "Martin, the Lord
has more for you to do.
1509
01:43:52,854 --> 01:43:55,360
You're gonna be all right."
1510
01:43:57,463 --> 01:43:58,660
But he knew.
1511
01:43:59,762 --> 01:44:01,498
He knew.
1512
01:44:02,765 --> 01:44:05,337
Other ministers
were jealous of him,
1513
01:44:06,307 --> 01:44:07,900
-but I never was.
-Mm.
1514
01:44:08,507 --> 01:44:10,474
He was my friend.
1515
01:44:11,576 --> 01:44:13,609
-I ministered him...
-Yeah.
1516
01:44:13,644 --> 01:44:14,775
...advised him.
1517
01:44:15,613 --> 01:44:16,975
Prayed with him.
1518
01:44:18,319 --> 01:44:20,781
-Yes, you did.
-More time than I can count.
1519
01:44:23,588 --> 01:44:25,324
I loved him, Ree.
1520
01:44:25,359 --> 01:44:26,919
He loved you.
1521
01:44:31,596 --> 01:44:33,794
Who's gonna lead us now?
1522
01:44:35,732 --> 01:44:37,864
They don't listen
to me anymore.
1523
01:44:37,899 --> 01:44:40,834
You still have
the biggest church in Detroit.
1524
01:44:42,002 --> 01:44:43,804
I still know
how to get 'em goin'.
1525
01:44:44,510 --> 01:44:45,839
-Yes, you do.
-I do.
1526
01:44:45,874 --> 01:44:47,709
Can I join you?
1527
01:44:47,744 --> 01:44:50,316
No. I just wanna talk to Ree.
Can I do that?
1528
01:44:50,351 --> 01:44:51,845
-Can I just talk to Ree?
-Of course you can.
1529
01:44:51,880 --> 01:44:53,352
-Daddy, Daddy, Daddy.
-Of course you can.
1530
01:44:54,487 --> 01:44:57,323
Um, I'll be right there
when you need me.
1531
01:44:59,657 --> 01:45:01,426
They need leadership, Ree.
1532
01:45:03,562 --> 01:45:05,056
You should see
the way these fools
1533
01:45:05,091 --> 01:45:08,631
are steppin' over
Martin's body to be in charge.
1534
01:45:08,666 --> 01:45:10,666
I don't want no part of that.
1535
01:45:11,900 --> 01:45:15,902
And these young
revolutionaries out here,
1536
01:45:15,937 --> 01:45:17,475
they don't want
no part of what we built.
1537
01:45:18,775 --> 01:45:21,479
They want to free our people.
1538
01:45:21,514 --> 01:45:23,481
They all talk.
1539
01:45:23,516 --> 01:45:25,846
Not all of them.
I like Angela Davis.
1540
01:45:27,817 --> 01:45:30,389
She don't care
about public opinion
1541
01:45:30,424 --> 01:45:32,017
and she's not afraid
to speak up
1542
01:45:32,052 --> 01:45:34,525
to those pigs or anyone else.
1543
01:45:34,560 --> 01:45:37,825
-Pigs?
-Yes, pigs.
1544
01:45:37,860 --> 01:45:39,398
You saw what they did to us
during the rebellion.
1545
01:45:39,433 --> 01:45:40,597
Riots.
1546
01:45:41,534 --> 01:45:43,666
Why shouldn't we fight back?
1547
01:45:43,701 --> 01:45:46,438
And start a full-on war?
You think we can win that?
1548
01:45:46,473 --> 01:45:47,901
We're tired of gettin'
our heads kicked in.
1549
01:45:47,936 --> 01:45:51,443
Non-violence
got us our civil rights
1550
01:45:51,478 --> 01:45:53,544
and our right to vote.
1551
01:45:53,579 --> 01:45:54,974
At what price? Our souls?
1552
01:45:55,009 --> 01:45:56,349
Our dignity?
1553
01:45:57,110 --> 01:45:58,384
Hmm.
1554
01:46:01,620 --> 01:46:03,356
I've been thinking.
1555
01:46:05,756 --> 01:46:07,690
We should hit the road again.
1556
01:46:10,123 --> 01:46:11,661
Why not?
1557
01:46:11,696 --> 01:46:13,531
A northern tour.
1558
01:46:13,566 --> 01:46:16,600
Me preachin' and you singin'.
1559
01:46:16,635 --> 01:46:17,568
Mm-mmm.
1560
01:46:19,506 --> 01:46:22,936
Just think on it.
1561
01:46:22,971 --> 01:46:24,608
You don't gotta
decide tonight.
1562
01:46:24,643 --> 01:46:25,906
I'm not doing that, Daddy.
1563
01:46:27,580 --> 01:46:29,613
I know you got
your very busy tourin'
1564
01:46:29,648 --> 01:46:30,944
and recordin' schedule.
1565
01:46:30,979 --> 01:46:32,451
This won't interfere
with that.
1566
01:46:32,486 --> 01:46:34,046
-I won't interfere with that.
-No.
1567
01:46:35,654 --> 01:46:38,589
I'm done with that.
1568
01:46:38,624 --> 01:46:40,591
I can't go back
to headlining with you.
1569
01:46:46,995 --> 01:46:49,798
You're not walkin'
in the spirit anymore.
1570
01:46:51,604 --> 01:46:54,132
That is not true.
1571
01:46:54,167 --> 01:46:57,102
You're drinking
and you're whoring around.
1572
01:46:57,137 --> 01:46:58,609
Same as you!
1573
01:46:58,644 --> 01:47:00,446
You not too old for me
to knock you on your ass!
1574
01:47:00,481 --> 01:47:01,942
-You know that, right?
-Is everything all right?
1575
01:47:01,977 --> 01:47:04,450
Just mind your own business!
I'm talkin' to...
1576
01:47:04,485 --> 01:47:05,781
Don't talk to her like that.
1577
01:47:05,816 --> 01:47:08,047
Have you lost your mind, huh?
1578
01:47:08,082 --> 01:47:09,983
Maybe.
1579
01:47:10,018 --> 01:47:11,952
Maybe I found it.
1580
01:47:15,221 --> 01:47:16,726
Come on, let's get you to bed.
1581
01:47:16,761 --> 01:47:18,464
Just...
1582
01:47:18,499 --> 01:47:20,092
Just don't.
1583
01:47:31,776 --> 01:47:34,612
-I heard your conversation.
-Mm...
1584
01:47:34,647 --> 01:47:36,108
I'm not sorry.
1585
01:47:36,143 --> 01:47:38,044
No, no, you ain't got nothin'
to be sorry for.
1586
01:47:39,718 --> 01:47:41,652
Just do your thing, Ree.
1587
01:47:42,589 --> 01:47:47,152
And you do it
as big and as loud
1588
01:47:47,187 --> 01:47:48,989
and as long as you can.
1589
01:48:19,120 --> 01:48:23,254
la, la, la, la,
1590
01:48:23,289 --> 01:48:27,797
la, la, la, la
1591
01:48:27,832 --> 01:48:33,099
at Spanish Harlem
1592
01:48:33,134 --> 01:48:36,069
Please, just listen
to it again, okay?
1593
01:48:36,104 --> 01:48:38,203
I have a great feeling
about this song,
1594
01:48:38,238 --> 01:48:40,205
and The Beatles
are getting restless.
1595
01:48:40,240 --> 01:48:42,614
They said if you
don't do it, they will.
1596
01:48:42,649 --> 01:48:44,616
The song is Catholic, Jerry.
1597
01:48:44,651 --> 01:48:46,211
I'm a Baptist.
1598
01:48:46,246 --> 01:48:48,048
That's... That's crazy.
1599
01:48:48,083 --> 01:48:49,313
-You thought that's gonna...
-They caught Angela Davis.
1600
01:48:49,348 --> 01:48:51,084
-What?
- That can't be right.
1601
01:48:51,119 --> 01:48:52,954
No, no, no, no.
1602
01:48:52,989 --> 01:48:55,561
Angela Davis,
a young Black militant
1603
01:48:55,596 --> 01:48:57,222
who has been hunted
for nearly two months
1604
01:48:57,257 --> 01:48:58,894
on murder
and kidnapping charges,
1605
01:49:00,667 --> 01:49:02,700
was arrested yesterday at a
hotel in midtown Manhattan
1606
01:49:02,735 --> 01:49:05,230
by agents of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation.
1607
01:49:05,265 --> 01:49:07,573
-
1608
01:49:07,608 --> 01:49:09,971
Angela Davis
must go free.
1609
01:49:10,006 --> 01:49:12,743
Black people will be free.
1610
01:49:12,778 --> 01:49:15,042
My daddy says
I don't know what I'm doing.
1611
01:49:15,077 --> 01:49:17,176
I respect him, of course,
1612
01:49:17,211 --> 01:49:20,146
but I have to stick
by my beliefs.
1613
01:49:20,181 --> 01:49:24,557
You have to disturb the peace
when you can't get no peace.
1614
01:49:30,829 --> 01:49:32,796
What the hell
is this tour schedule?
1615
01:49:32,831 --> 01:49:34,930
-Half the damn dates are gone!
-All right, all right,
1616
01:49:34,965 --> 01:49:36,635
we were just about to have
a talk with you about this.
1617
01:49:36,670 --> 01:49:37,999
We?
1618
01:49:38,034 --> 01:49:39,572
We're not having
a family barbecue?
1619
01:49:40,674 --> 01:49:42,003
This is one of these
Ken hippie talks?
1620
01:49:42,038 --> 01:49:43,675
I told you this wasn't
gonna work.
1621
01:49:43,710 --> 01:49:44,775
Just breathe.
1622
01:49:44,810 --> 01:49:46,007
Put the damn dates back.
1623
01:49:46,042 --> 01:49:46,942
Don't do it, Cecil.
Listen, Ree...
1624
01:49:46,977 --> 01:49:48,009
You work for me, Cecil.
1625
01:49:48,044 --> 01:49:49,373
You overbook.
1626
01:49:49,408 --> 01:49:51,177
You don't show up
for half the dates,
1627
01:49:51,212 --> 01:49:52,277
then I have to
deal with the fallout.
1628
01:49:52,312 --> 01:49:53,817
It's your damn job!
1629
01:49:53,852 --> 01:49:54,917
We're trying to help you.
1630
01:49:54,952 --> 01:49:56,721
Aretha, you need to slow down.
1631
01:49:56,756 --> 01:49:58,624
You stop for five minutes,
they forget all about you.
1632
01:49:58,659 --> 01:49:59,757
That's ridiculous.
1633
01:50:00,860 --> 01:50:02,287
How would you know, Erma?
You barely have one hit.
1634
01:50:02,322 --> 01:50:03,959
Ree,
you haven't slept in months.
1635
01:50:03,994 --> 01:50:05,862
And you look like it.
1636
01:50:05,897 --> 01:50:07,765
You don't want me to tell you
what you look like, Carolyn.
1637
01:50:07,800 --> 01:50:09,063
Well, next time
you have a breakdown,
1638
01:50:10,099 --> 01:50:11,296
don't call us, all right?
1639
01:50:14,334 --> 01:50:15,608
I won't.
1640
01:50:16,677 --> 01:50:18,204
Come on,
let's go outside. Come on.
1641
01:50:18,239 --> 01:50:20,712
And don't call me
when you need a gig,
1642
01:50:20,747 --> 01:50:25,112
or you want me to write liner
notes in your jive-ass album,
1643
01:50:25,147 --> 01:50:27,378
or introduce you
to some producers,
1644
01:50:27,413 --> 01:50:31,085
or just borrow some cash
that your ass never pay back.
1645
01:50:31,120 --> 01:50:33,318
If I don't work,
y'all don't eat.
1646
01:50:34,387 --> 01:50:36,255
Right.
1647
01:50:36,290 --> 01:50:37,927
Put the damn dates
back, Cecil.
1648
01:50:40,261 --> 01:50:45,363
Three venues in three states
in three days.
1649
01:50:45,398 --> 01:50:48,201
-Happy now?
-Yes, I am.
1650
01:50:48,236 --> 01:50:50,676
And don't ever pull that
bullshit with me again.
1651
01:50:50,711 --> 01:50:52,172
I know how to run
my damn business.
1652
01:50:53,043 --> 01:50:55,340
You asked me.
1653
01:50:55,375 --> 01:50:56,880
Y'all just wanna
take my crown.
1654
01:50:56,915 --> 01:50:59,080
-Oh, God.
-Please.
1655
01:50:59,115 --> 01:51:02,215
Ree, think about our son.
This isn't good for him.
1656
01:51:02,250 --> 01:51:04,085
Don't tell me
I'm a bad mother.
1657
01:51:04,120 --> 01:51:05,691
-Here comes the paranoia.
- I never said that!
1658
01:51:05,726 --> 01:51:07,891
Olga, bring Miss Franklin
a fruit juice.
1659
01:51:07,926 --> 01:51:09,321
Don't you dare.
1660
01:51:11,127 --> 01:51:13,996
What you staring at?
Go get my lunch.
1661
01:51:14,031 --> 01:51:15,195
Yes, ma'am.
1662
01:51:17,265 --> 01:51:19,133
Tell me y'all
don't want what I got.
1663
01:51:19,168 --> 01:51:20,871
All right, forget it!
1664
01:51:20,906 --> 01:51:22,334
I can't talk to you
when that demon takes hold.
1665
01:51:24,008 --> 01:51:25,876
You don't know
what I go through.
1666
01:51:25,911 --> 01:51:27,911
Y'all don't know
what I've been through!
1667
01:51:27,946 --> 01:51:29,011
We love you, Ree.
1668
01:51:29,046 --> 01:51:31,013
Why can't you see that, Ree?
1669
01:51:31,048 --> 01:51:33,114
Get the hell out of my house.
1670
01:51:33,149 --> 01:51:34,852
No, don't move. We're going
to deal with this, Ree.
1671
01:51:34,887 --> 01:51:36,084
Out!
1672
01:51:37,417 --> 01:51:38,691
Out!
1673
01:51:40,321 --> 01:51:41,353
Out!
1674
01:51:45,029 --> 01:51:46,292
-Come on, baby, please.
-Mm-mm.
1675
01:51:49,165 --> 01:51:52,166
Ree, listen to me.
They're here to help you.
1676
01:51:52,201 --> 01:51:54,366
- Please.
1677
01:51:57,943 --> 01:51:59,404
It's your family.
1678
01:51:59,439 --> 01:52:02,275
Teddy! Calf! Come help
your momma sing now.
1679
01:52:07,788 --> 01:52:11,218
and Black
1680
01:52:11,253 --> 01:52:15,123
precious thing
1681
01:52:16,324 --> 01:52:19,765
Young,
gifted, and Black
1682
01:52:19,800 --> 01:52:23,967
precious thing
1683
01:52:24,002 --> 01:52:25,001
Say it again.
1684
01:52:26,235 --> 01:52:28,972
and Black
1685
01:52:29,007 --> 01:52:33,911
to what I mean
1686
01:52:33,946 --> 01:52:37,277
gifted, and Black
1687
01:52:41,217 --> 01:52:44,416
I'm gonna take the kids
back to Detroit with me.
1688
01:52:45,958 --> 01:52:47,925
I think that's best.
1689
01:52:53,295 --> 01:52:54,866
What are you thinking
right now?
1690
01:52:54,901 --> 01:52:56,296
Just things.
1691
01:53:02,040 --> 01:53:03,336
What things?
1692
01:53:03,371 --> 01:53:05,976
Private things.
1693
01:53:06,011 --> 01:53:08,440
After all this time, you're
still keepin' stuff from me?
1694
01:53:10,543 --> 01:53:12,312
You don't keep stuff from me?
1695
01:53:12,512 --> 01:53:13,445
No.
1696
01:53:14,888 --> 01:53:16,085
You should.
1697
01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:18,186
Why? I trust you.
1698
01:53:19,057 --> 01:53:20,320
Don't you trust me?
1699
01:53:21,125 --> 01:53:23,488
Sometimes.
1700
01:53:23,523 --> 01:53:25,325
What do I have to do
to make it all the time?
1701
01:53:25,899 --> 01:53:27,459
Just let me be.
1702
01:53:36,877 --> 01:53:38,338
I know what to do.
1703
01:53:46,084 --> 01:53:47,215
Mmm.
1704
01:53:49,219 --> 01:53:51,186
Be here with me.
1705
01:53:51,221 --> 01:53:53,386
Just let your mind go quiet
for a moment.
1706
01:53:53,421 --> 01:53:55,861
That would be easy
if you stopped talking.
1707
01:54:03,431 --> 01:54:04,496
What's wrong?
1708
01:54:04,905 --> 01:54:06,036
Nothing.
1709
01:54:07,974 --> 01:54:09,303
I have to make some calls.
1710
01:54:09,338 --> 01:54:10,942
You don't have
to call anyone, Ree.
1711
01:54:10,977 --> 01:54:12,273
You don't know
what I have to do.
1712
01:54:12,308 --> 01:54:13,505
Don't go to that dark place.
1713
01:54:14,640 --> 01:54:16,376
Come here.
1714
01:54:18,314 --> 01:54:19,544
Come here.
1715
01:54:25,057 --> 01:54:26,892
Tell me what's wrong, baby.
1716
01:54:33,065 --> 01:54:34,295
You're shaking.
1717
01:54:34,330 --> 01:54:36,066
You act so tough.
1718
01:54:36,101 --> 01:54:38,068
I can see that little
scared girl in you.
1719
01:54:38,103 --> 01:54:39,905
Shit!
1720
01:54:39,940 --> 01:54:42,006
-I'm sorry.
1721
01:54:42,503 --> 01:54:44,206
I'm so sorry.
1722
01:54:48,113 --> 01:54:49,310
It's all right.
1723
01:54:49,345 --> 01:54:50,278
Shit!
1724
01:54:59,960 --> 01:55:02,059
She can't do it, Cecil.
1725
01:55:02,094 --> 01:55:03,555
Put her on the phone.
1726
01:55:05,493 --> 01:55:07,625
She's asleep right now.
Her migraine.
1727
01:55:07,660 --> 01:55:10,001
Man, who do you think
you're bullshittin'?
1728
01:55:10,036 --> 01:55:12,531
Tell Ree she's gonna
get sued again.
1729
01:55:16,504 --> 01:55:18,042
One of us
needs to go check on her.
1730
01:55:18,077 --> 01:55:19,538
Well, it's your job
to keep an eye on her.
1731
01:55:19,573 --> 01:55:20,506
Ladies and gentlemen,
1732
01:55:20,541 --> 01:55:22,640
the Queen of Soul,
1733
01:55:22,675 --> 01:55:25,610
Miss Aretha Franklin!
1734
01:55:25,645 --> 01:55:27,414
- Ree!
1735
01:55:27,449 --> 01:55:29,614
Hey, let us help you.
1736
01:55:29,649 --> 01:55:30,450
Please.
1737
01:55:42,662 --> 01:55:44,101
-
1738
01:55:51,308 --> 01:55:55,112
for you
1739
01:56:02,583 --> 01:56:04,286
-
1740
01:56:11,295 --> 01:56:13,999
to wear now
1741
01:56:15,728 --> 01:56:18,135
-
1742
01:56:18,170 --> 01:56:21,336
You'll stay in my heart
1743
01:56:23,076 --> 01:56:26,275
We never will part
1744
01:56:28,114 --> 01:56:30,081
-
1745
01:56:30,116 --> 01:56:33,480
To live without you
1746
01:56:33,515 --> 01:56:37,319
Only bring
heartbreak for me
1747
01:56:46,462 --> 01:56:48,297
-
1748
01:57:04,678 --> 01:57:06,744
-Ree? Ree?
1749
01:57:06,779 --> 01:57:09,252
Ree? Ree? Can you hear me?
1750
01:57:09,287 --> 01:57:10,748
-Don't move.
- Don't... Don't move.
1751
01:57:10,783 --> 01:57:12,585
-Your arm?
- Someone get a medic!
1752
01:57:12,620 --> 01:57:14,125
Come here, baby,
come here.
1753
01:57:14,160 --> 01:57:15,720
Roll over. Roll over.
1754
01:57:15,755 --> 01:57:17,293
Easy, easy, easy.
-Stay back!
1755
01:57:18,164 --> 01:57:19,526
I got you, I got you.
1756
01:57:19,561 --> 01:57:21,660
Back, please.
Get back, please.
1757
01:57:21,695 --> 01:57:23,233
-Keep back, please!
1758
01:57:23,268 --> 01:57:25,070
Is she okay?
1759
01:57:25,105 --> 01:57:26,170
It's gonna be all right, Ree.
1760
01:57:27,305 --> 01:57:29,239
I can't do this anymore.
1761
01:57:34,642 --> 01:57:35,707
Mm.
1762
01:58:27,563 --> 01:58:28,760
Please...
1763
01:58:29,829 --> 01:58:31,301
Please...
1764
02:00:15,968 --> 02:00:21,279
-
1765
02:00:53,610 --> 02:00:55,643
Our Father...
1766
02:00:59,583 --> 02:01:01,550
-Which art in Heaven...
1767
02:01:04,324 --> 02:01:06,918
Hallowed be Thy name.
1768
02:01:08,526 --> 02:01:10,592
Thy kingdom come.
1769
02:02:22,600 --> 02:02:24,864
You always did know
how to make an entrance.
1770
02:02:28,540 --> 02:02:29,605
James.
1771
02:02:39,485 --> 02:02:40,748
All right.
1772
02:02:42,554 --> 02:02:45,423
Okay. You come and sit.
1773
02:02:45,458 --> 02:02:46,820
Come on.
1774
02:03:00,506 --> 02:03:02,539
What y'all wanna sing?
1775
02:03:02,574 --> 02:03:03,771
And...
1776
02:03:06,479 --> 02:03:09,810
An all-gospel record
has a very limited audience.
1777
02:03:09,845 --> 02:03:11,944
-I don't care.
-You do care.
1778
02:03:11,979 --> 02:03:14,485
You sat in that office
with me six years ago,
1779
02:03:14,520 --> 02:03:15,849
and you said
you wanted to make hits,
1780
02:03:15,884 --> 02:03:17,114
and I think you still do.
1781
02:03:17,149 --> 02:03:19,490
I'm making this album, Jerry.
1782
02:03:19,525 --> 02:03:21,591
All right, can you just
hear me out, please?
1783
02:03:21,626 --> 02:03:23,087
I'm making this album,
1784
02:03:23,122 --> 02:03:26,057
or I'll never make an album
with you again.
1785
02:03:27,764 --> 02:03:30,468
All I wanna do
is drink now, Jerry.
1786
02:03:30,503 --> 02:03:32,437
Well, let me get you
into a program.
1787
02:03:32,472 --> 02:03:34,967
I'm in a program,
but I need the church.
1788
02:03:35,002 --> 02:03:36,441
I need the spirit.
1789
02:03:36,476 --> 02:03:37,508
It has always
gotten me through,
1790
02:03:37,543 --> 02:03:38,608
and it will get me
through again.
1791
02:03:40,810 --> 02:03:42,975
Okay. Well, can we just...
1792
02:03:43,010 --> 02:03:44,779
I... I mean,
just think about this...
1793
02:03:44,814 --> 02:03:47,617
This album is not for me
or for you or anybody else.
1794
02:03:47,652 --> 02:03:49,454
This album is for God.
1795
02:03:49,489 --> 02:03:52,655
And you can't jive God, Jerry,
so stop trying.
1796
02:03:52,690 --> 02:03:54,019
- Oh.
1797
02:03:54,054 --> 02:03:57,825
I'm not trying to jive you
or Jesus, okay?
1798
02:03:59,895 --> 02:04:01,598
It's the gospel record.
1799
02:04:03,503 --> 02:04:06,834
It's 1972, for Christ's sake.
Sorry. I...
1800
02:04:07,507 --> 02:04:08,572
Hey,
1801
02:04:09,905 --> 02:04:12,477
how about we make
a documentary film
1802
02:04:12,512 --> 02:04:13,511
to go along with the record?
1803
02:04:13,546 --> 02:04:14,908
Why?
1804
02:04:14,943 --> 02:04:17,746
So, the international fans,
the hippies,
1805
02:04:17,781 --> 02:04:20,551
the atheists like me
can see you in your element
1806
02:04:20,586 --> 02:04:22,784
and understand the music
that made you.
1807
02:04:22,819 --> 02:04:25,017
You mean for white people?
1808
02:04:25,052 --> 02:04:26,590
Well, I...
1809
02:04:27,692 --> 02:04:28,988
All right. Yes.
1810
02:04:31,223 --> 02:04:32,794
That's a great idea.
1811
02:04:34,127 --> 02:04:36,061
Okay. Well, good.
So, you're not gonna leave me?
1812
02:04:36,800 --> 02:04:38,503
We're not done yet.
1813
02:04:38,538 --> 02:04:41,770
Oh, boy. What?
1814
02:04:41,805 --> 02:04:44,003
I want to produce
the album, too.
1815
02:04:45,105 --> 02:04:46,005
Oh.
1816
02:04:50,275 --> 02:04:53,078
All right. Okay. Okay.
1817
02:05:02,628 --> 02:05:04,529
Hold! Hold!
1818
02:05:04,564 --> 02:05:06,795
You have to do something
with the longer notes.
1819
02:05:06,830 --> 02:05:09,259
You're not giving yourself
anywhere to go.
1820
02:05:09,294 --> 02:05:12,064
Start straight, then hit
the vibrato halfway through.
1821
02:05:12,099 --> 02:05:13,164
Tension
and release, y'all.
1822
02:05:14,233 --> 02:05:17,069
Yes, and this song
is a lot more, uh, deliberate.
1823
02:05:17,104 --> 02:05:18,675
-Mm.
- Yeah?
1824
02:05:19,843 --> 02:05:21,073
Take it from
where we left off.
1825
02:05:21,746 --> 02:05:23,174
"In the stillness."
1826
02:05:33,626 --> 02:05:35,692
Yeah, that's it.
1827
02:05:51,677 --> 02:05:55,712
-
1828
02:05:55,747 --> 02:05:58,847
-
1829
02:05:58,882 --> 02:06:01,586
-
1830
02:06:01,621 --> 02:06:02,752
Thank you!
1831
02:06:06,285 --> 02:06:10,595
-
1832
02:06:34,313 --> 02:06:39,118
Sweet precious memories
1833
02:07:04,343 --> 02:07:07,883
Oh, Lord
1834
02:07:16,091 --> 02:07:18,960
Okay, all right,
we're gonna take a ten.
1835
02:07:18,995 --> 02:07:21,226
Let's take ten. Let's, uh...
1836
02:07:30,776 --> 02:07:32,204
Are you all right?
1837
02:07:32,239 --> 02:07:35,273
I can't make a fool
out of myself.
1838
02:07:35,308 --> 02:07:37,242
There's gonna be
a film crew here.
1839
02:07:39,983 --> 02:07:42,687
And if I break down
like I did right now,
1840
02:07:42,722 --> 02:07:44,282
they gonna think
I lost my mind.
1841
02:07:44,317 --> 02:07:45,822
Ree...
1842
02:07:47,991 --> 02:07:51,091
Ree, the spirit is the spirit.
1843
02:07:51,126 --> 02:07:52,862
It moves when it moves.
1844
02:07:52,897 --> 02:07:55,194
What you want us to do?
Behave like Episcopalians?
1845
02:07:57,770 --> 02:07:59,198
Now what's really
bothering you?
1846
02:08:01,807 --> 02:08:03,675
You told me once
1847
02:08:05,140 --> 02:08:08,141
that music would save my life.
1848
02:08:09,408 --> 02:08:10,682
I did.
1849
02:08:11,146 --> 02:08:12,981
What if it doesn't?
1850
02:08:14,149 --> 02:08:16,248
The demon is strong.
1851
02:08:16,283 --> 02:08:18,756
Ain't no demon
hauntin' you, Ree.
1852
02:08:18,791 --> 02:08:20,021
There never was.
1853
02:08:21,224 --> 02:08:24,696
Just the pain you've been
runnin' from your whole life.
1854
02:08:26,766 --> 02:08:29,096
But you gotta let it go, Ree.
1855
02:08:30,902 --> 02:08:32,869
Give it to God.
1856
02:08:35,038 --> 02:08:36,103
It wasn't your fault.
1857
02:08:39,042 --> 02:08:40,976
And He knows that.
1858
02:08:44,377 --> 02:08:47,312
I don't know about tomorrow
1859
02:08:47,347 --> 02:08:51,250
or the concert or the album
or the documentary.
1860
02:08:52,319 --> 02:08:54,858
You in church right now.
1861
02:08:55,960 --> 02:08:57,795
You're safe.
1862
02:08:59,062 --> 02:09:00,963
So, Ree,
1863
02:09:01,801 --> 02:09:03,735
let's have church.
1864
02:09:53,149 --> 02:09:54,214
Daddy.
1865
02:09:57,120 --> 02:09:58,218
It's good to see you.
1866
02:10:00,288 --> 02:10:03,421
We were in California, and
1867
02:10:03,456 --> 02:10:05,456
we heard that you were
singing gospel, and...
1868
02:10:07,526 --> 02:10:09,295
Clara dragged me here.
1869
02:10:09,330 --> 02:10:11,836
Clara can't make
you do anything.
1870
02:10:11,871 --> 02:10:13,365
She's got pretty feisty
since you last saw her.
1871
02:10:14,566 --> 02:10:16,368
Glad you came.
1872
02:10:16,403 --> 02:10:18,040
That surprises me,
1873
02:10:18,075 --> 02:10:20,471
'cause we haven't been
getting on as of late.
1874
02:10:22,178 --> 02:10:24,849
You told me I wasn't
walking in the spirit.
1875
02:10:24,884 --> 02:10:25,817
I was angry.
1876
02:10:26,545 --> 02:10:28,380
You were with God.
1877
02:10:28,415 --> 02:10:29,986
You have always been with God.
1878
02:10:31,418 --> 02:10:33,858
He was with me.
1879
02:10:33,893 --> 02:10:36,355
I tried to run from Him,
but He brought me back.
1880
02:10:36,896 --> 02:10:38,126
Like Jonah.
1881
02:10:39,195 --> 02:10:40,425
Like Jonah.
1882
02:10:44,035 --> 02:10:46,365
You taught me every song
I'm singing today.
1883
02:10:51,075 --> 02:10:52,140
I did my best.
1884
02:10:54,914 --> 02:10:57,541
But you have exceeded
all of my expectations, Ree.
1885
02:10:59,116 --> 02:11:02,018
I'm about to bust wide open,
1886
02:11:02,053 --> 02:11:05,021
and you're just
getting started.
1887
02:11:05,056 --> 02:11:09,157
I can't imagine
what you're gonna do next.
1888
02:11:10,963 --> 02:11:12,424
Because you can
do anything, Ree.
1889
02:11:17,200 --> 02:11:19,167
First, give an honor to God
1890
02:11:19,202 --> 02:11:21,499
who's the head
of all our lives.
1891
02:11:21,534 --> 02:11:24,238
-Yes. Amen.
-
1892
02:11:24,273 --> 02:11:26,944
I'm sure you all have
noticed the cameras by now.
1893
02:11:28,211 --> 02:11:31,212
Don't get distracted by it.
1894
02:11:31,247 --> 02:11:32,642
We here to have church, right?
1895
02:11:32,677 --> 02:11:35,513
Amen.
- All right.
1896
02:11:35,548 --> 02:11:39,484
This is the first
religious recordin'
1897
02:11:39,519 --> 02:11:43,455
by our First Lady of Soul.
1898
02:11:43,490 --> 02:11:47,195
Give a warm round of applause
for Miss Aretha Franklin.
1899
02:12:23,398 --> 02:12:24,595
We love you.
1900
02:13:20,620 --> 02:13:27,658
-
1901
02:13:56,491 --> 02:14:00,460
The sound
1902
02:15:30,849 --> 02:15:33,256
- Amen. Amen.
1903
02:16:13,529 --> 02:16:17,894
of the storm
1904
02:16:34,649 --> 02:16:41,456
It was grace
1905
02:17:00,807 --> 02:17:04,413
Safe
1906
02:18:12,384 --> 02:18:18,388
on the morning rain
1907
02:18:18,423 --> 02:18:23,690
so uninspired
1908
02:18:26,024 --> 02:18:31,995
to face another day
1909
02:18:32,030 --> 02:18:37,572
so tired
1910
02:18:39,037 --> 02:18:45,646
life was so unkind
1911
02:18:45,681 --> 02:18:50,915
to my piece of mind
1912
02:18:50,950 --> 02:18:58,758
You make me feel
1913
02:18:58,793 --> 02:19:04,896
like a natural woman
1914
02:19:08,803 --> 02:19:14,609
was in the lost and found
1915
02:19:15,942 --> 02:19:19,911
came along to claim it
1916
02:19:23,114 --> 02:19:28,920
just what was wrong with me
1917
02:19:28,955 --> 02:19:33,595
helped me name it
1918
02:19:36,435 --> 02:19:42,802
of what I'm living for
1919
02:19:42,837 --> 02:19:48,676
I don't need to do more
1920
02:19:48,711 --> 02:19:55,617
You make me feel
1921
02:19:55,652 --> 02:20:02,624
like a natural woman
1922
02:20:05,761 --> 02:20:09,092
Oh, baby
What you done to me
1923
02:20:12,064 --> 02:20:19,476
so, so, so good inside
1924
02:20:19,511 --> 02:20:23,711
-
1925
02:20:23,746 --> 02:20:29,585
that makes me feel so alive
1926
02:20:32,755 --> 02:20:36,460
-
1927
02:20:36,495 --> 02:20:39,925
-
1928
02:20:39,960 --> 02:20:43,599
-
1929
02:20:43,634 --> 02:20:47,196
-
1930
02:20:49,805 --> 02:20:52,674
-
1931
02:20:52,709 --> 02:20:55,545
-
1932
02:20:59,980 --> 02:21:03,080
-
1933
02:21:03,115 --> 02:21:06,215
-
1934
02:21:06,250 --> 02:21:08,756
-
1935
02:21:11,827 --> 02:21:16,192
-
1936
02:21:16,227 --> 02:21:18,161
-
1937
02:21:18,196 --> 02:21:21,637
-
1938
02:21:40,757 --> 02:21:43,021
-
1939
02:22:07,718 --> 02:22:13,249
Too long
1940
02:23:08,647 --> 02:23:13,012
Sing my way
1941
02:23:32,132 --> 02:23:36,200
But unheard
1942
02:23:45,112 --> 02:23:49,345
they won't let you fly
1943
02:24:07,233 --> 02:24:09,937
in your hands
