Besides the incredible talent, Miss Warwick is the epitome of soul, class and glamour.

This docufilm goes back to her roots and early beginnings. It is interesting to hear about all the other talents who got their start at the Apollo Theatre. She also tells a story about touring the south back in the 1950s. She said, "I had never been treated like that before." Well, at least she wasn't treated badly in the north, for the most part. Thank goodness for that at least.

It touches on her financial problems but doesn't go into her strange oddyssey with the psychic network. It also ignores her turn as the glamorous and regal host of Solid Gold.

What impressed me further was her taking on gangsta rap for their misogynistic lyrics. Only SHE could pull that off!

I don't get Snoop saying she paved the way for people like him. Apples and Oranges.
