Description
"Janis Joplin is one of the most revered and iconic of all rock & roll singers, a tragic and misunderstood figure who thrilled millions of listeners and blazed new creative trails before her death in 1970 at age 27. With Janis: Little Girl Blue, Oscar-nominated director Amy J. Berg ... examines Joplin's story in depth, presenting an intimate, insightful portrait of a complicated, often beleaguered artist. Joplin's own words tell much of the film's story through a series of letters she wrote home over the years, many made public here for the first time (and read by Southern-born indie rock star/actor Chan Marshall, aka Cat Power) ... Janis: Little Girl Blue offers new understanding of a bright, complex woman whose meteoric rise and sudden demise changed music forever and continues to influence female musicians"--Container.
