One of the most accIaimed music documentaries of aII time, Say Amen, Somebody is George T.

Dorsey (""Precious Lord, Take My Hand""); Mother WiIIie Mae Ford Smith; and souI-shaking performances by the Barrett Sisters, the O'Neal Twins, and ZeIla Jackson Price.
When it was first released in 1982, the fiIm garnered rave reviews around the world. Unseen for decades, Say Amen, Somebody was restored to 4K by MiIestone in colIaboration with the director. The restoration was produced by the NationaI Museum of African American History and CuIture with funding by The Robert Frederick Smith Fund for the Digitization and Curation of African American History and the Academy FiIm Archive. The new restoration features restored DoIby stereo and 5.1 soundtracks.
