Cinema, Movie Reviews Black Woodstock, documentary, Harlem Cultural Festival, Questlove, Summer of Soul, Summer of Soul Or When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised 2 Comments
Summer of Soul: Sly Stone (CREDIT: Searchlight Pictures)
Starring: The Performers and Attendees of the 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival
Director: Questlove
Running Time: 117 Minutes
Rating: PG-13 for Rock ‘n’ Roll
Release Date: June 25, 2021 (New York and Los Angeles)/July 2, 2021 (Expanding Theatrically/Hulu)
The 1969 Harlem Cultural Festival is widely known as “Black Woodstock,” and if you watch the Questlove-directed concert documentary Summer of Soul (…Or, When the Revolution Could Not Be Televised), it’s pretty obvious why. Two landmark music festivals, held in the same summer, in the same state, only about 100 miles apart. One of them has enjoyed one of the biggest footprints in American cultural history. The other was permanently relegated to the dustbin … until now.
