MEDIA: Great Film –
July 4, 2018 – Just when you thought there was nothing more to learn about the late Whitney Houston, a new documentary is here to prove otherwise. “Whitney” (in theaters nationwide Friday) rehashes the already well-chronicled life of the pop superstar, who drowned in a hotel bathtub in 2012 after years of cocaine abuse. The documentary mixes old news clips; fresh interviews with dozens of family members, friends and co-workers; and never-before-seen home videos and photos, courtesy of the Houston estate. “Whitney” manages to thoughtfully examine Houston’s life in a way that satisfies casual fans and provides new information for even the most hardcore enthusiasts.
