Morgan Neville’s spotlight on backup singers debuted last year at Sundance as one of the opening night selections. It has screened extensively since, including berths at SXSW, DOC NYC, Miami, Sarasota, Dallas, and Seattle. It enjoyed a successful theatrical release and has been shortlisted for the Best Documentary Oscar – the five finalists will be announced this Thursday.
My pre-Sundance profile of the doc may be found here.
