Tupac - Resurrection

THE LIFE OF INFLUENTIAL & ENIGMATIC RAPPER TUPAC SHAKUR, WHOROSE FROM THE GHETTO TO BECOME THE TOP-SELLING RAP ARTIST OFALL TIME, IS TODL ENTIRELY IN HIS OWN WORDS & VOICE IN THIS ACCLAIMED INTIMATE PORTRAIT.Title aside, we'll never see the likes of Tupac Shakur again. The late rap superstar was a complex, contradictory figure and, throughout the course of this riveting documentary, it's as if he's back in our world again. Produced by his mother, former Black Panther Afeni Shakur,Tupac Resurrection isn't so much "biased" as it'ssubjective. In the MTV film, accompanied by a book and soundtrack, director Lauren Lazin looks at Tupac's short, full life from beginning to end and doesn't avoid the dark times--the arrests, the shootings--but she does tend to emphasize the positive over the negative. More to the point, the narration comes from Tupac himself, smoothly edited from countless interviews, so we're constantly gettinghis take on events. He's more thoughtful and articulate than his detractors might expect (despite the profanity), but the contradictions remain, making this essential viewing for even the most casual of fans.--Kathleen C.
