I have watched it and yes it was worth watching. Not the best autobiographical movie but enjoyable.

Thanks. Will probably try. However the reviews say it’s a bit academic.

Jennifer Hudson’s voice is good, no Aretha’s, but still strong.

I loved Roads To Freedom first time around, spellbound almost… then inexplicably forgot about it. Watching tonight has been grimly wonderful. All the characters I’d forgotten…I always meant to read it. I will now.

I will wait the return of my wife who went a few days to see her parents, for holidays. I will try to interest her for soul music. That movie should do the task.

Have watched 4 episodes of The Sandman on Netflix this week.
Quite entertaining but the swearing seems excessive and I’d be interested to know if this and the various aspects of ’diversity’ on show is representative of the original ‘comics’ or just meeting quotas?
The Netflix video quality is rubbish considering I have the 4k option and appears ridiculously pixelated - high demand or poor compression especially in low light scenes??? They’ve just put the price up too. Midern YouTube videos are almost BluRay quality, Netflix codecs used to be excellent. 
Watching the US version of House of Cards.
I’ve put off watching this for a long time thinking it would be such a disappointment after the excellent UK version with the brilliant Francis Urquhart but, actually, it’s quite good. It very much follows the underlying theme of the UK version. IMO not as brilliant as the UK version but a very close second.
