"Genius: Aretha" brings the queen of soul to life
After Albert Einstein in season 1 and Pablo Picasso in season 2, the National Geographic
Genius
anthology
leans in season 3 on the brilliant Aretha Franklin. Available since Friday on Disney +, the series sweeps five decades of the artist's life from his early days to age 12, singing gospel to the experienced artist nicknamed “the queen of soul”. This eight-part series highlights the artist's creative talent, his emancipation and his political commitments through his relationship with Martin Luther King. The performance of Cynthia Erivo, singer and actress crowned with a Tony, a Grammy and an Emmy awards, in the skin of the immense artist who died in 2018 is breathtaking as that of the young Shaian Jordan who plays Little Re. A classic biopic that allows you to learn more about the one who was ranked the greatest singer of all time in 2010 by
Rolling Stone

"Dance with the queens", a feel-good film about tolerance
You will not have escaped your notice that the title of this film refers to Abba's hit… The Swedish feature
Dancing with the queens
, a film directed by director Helena Bergström and co-written with Denize Karabuda, follows Dylan (Molly Nutley), a young 23-year-old dancer, who will rebuild herself by becoming a cleaner in a drag-queens club a year and a half after the death of her mother. Her dancing skills will quickly be spotted and she will join the Queens troupe under a false identity. If the story is often not very believable and the world of drag queens is described too superficially, this feel good film speaks beautifully of mourning, acceptance of oneself and of the other.
