Grace Jones’ life story is to be retold via the documentary ‘Grace Jones: Bloodlight & Bami’, the very first comprehensive film to examine the icon’s past.
Production on the release kicked off five years ago and hopes to introduce viewers to a version of Grace they’ve never seen before via footage pulled from interviews, performances and moments prised from her colourful private life.
Its director Sophie Fiennes shares…
This film began in a collaborative creative spirit. Grace had fiercely controlled her public image, but made the bold decision to un-mask. She never sought to control my shooting process, and I didn’t second-guess the narrative of the film as I was shooting. I just gathered evidence. The film is a deliberately present-tense experience; for me this is the thrill-ride of verité cinema.

As a Pop purveyor Rihanna is the envy of many of her peers.
Alas, the performer hasn’t had much luck as far as films are concerned. For, after watching ‘Battleship’ sink, the entertainer has learned that her latest movie project ‘Valerian and the City of Thousand Planets’ has done the same.
Billed a box office bomb by ‘Deadline‘, ‘Planets’ was built on a budget of $177 million but, by way of its failure to recoup this, has been written off by critics as a flop after earning only $59.9 million worldwide.
Movie insiders reveal that it will need to generate $350 million to break-even and is unlikely to secure a sequel as its producers seek to cut their losses.
