Movie Review: Little Richard

When I go to the gym, I’m usually on either the treadmill or a stationary bicycle, and I like to listen to music when I’m working out.  Good tunes relieve the boredom of indoor aerobic exercise, and if I get the right tunes, it keeps me in the zone.   One of my favorites is Little Richard, and there are a bunch of his songs on YouTube.  A couple of weeks ago, one of the Little Richard YouTube videos that popped up was an hour and a half long (and that got my attention).  It wasn’t just a song…it was a movie about Little Richard’s life, and I’ll tell you, it was good.

You can watch it here, you can go to full screen on your computer, or you can watch it on your television if your TV gives you Internet access.   The Little Richard movie is a bit formulaic (it’s a typical rock hero life story kind of movie), but I enjoyed it and I think you will, too.
