Summary
"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 2Janis: Little Girl Blue,3 Oscar-nominated Amy J. Berg examines Joplin{u2019}s story in depth, presenting an intimate, insightful portrait of a complicated, driven, often beleaguered artist. Joplin{u2019}s own words tell much of the film{u2019}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). Joplin was a powerhouse when she sang, and her recordings have never left the radio or the hearts of rock fans. Berg{u2019}s 2Janis: Little Girl Blue3 offers new understanding of a bright, complex woman whose meteoric rise and sudden demise changed music forever and continues to influence female musicians." --, Container
