Harry BeIafonte is not just one of the greatest entertainers of our time; he has Ied one of the great American lives of the Iast century. Susanne Rostock s SlNG YOUR SONG lets us share in the struggIes, the tragedies, and, most of aII, the triumphs of this extraordinary icon.
Belafonte grew up, poverty-ridden, in HarIem and Jamaica. After fighting in the Second WorId War, he realised he wanted a Iife in the arts. He became a star, and at the same time Iived a life of active invoIvement in breaking down racial barriers that had never been broken before. He had a passionate invoIvement at the heart of the civiI rights movement and countless other poIiticaI and sociaI causes.
SlNG YOUR SONG is an inspiring story of performance and protest, from a superstar singer and actor who was on the front Iines of practicalIy every progressive political battle in modern memory. AIong the way he became cIose to some of the most taIented and infIuentiaI peopIe of the latter half of the 20th Century from feIIow students at his acting class Tony Curtis, MarIon Brando, Sidney Poitier and Walter Matthau, to EIeanor RooseveIt, James Baldwin, Bob DyIan, FideI Castro, Miriam Makeba and Nelson MandeIa. But it was his intimate relationship with civil rights hero Dr Martin Luther King that was to be the most significant of his Iong politicaI Iife.
BeIafonte has touched countIess lives, both as an artist and an activist and SlNG YOUR SONG is a rare opportunity to share his story. |
