What's Love Got to Do with It

Angela deserved EVERY award for this movie. She embodied Tina effortlessly. I enjoy how the film focuses on Tina’s life in the 60s. It dives into how Anna Mae became TINA. It’s crazy to think that throughout all the ish she went through she still came out a legend! We miss you T🤎

I didn’t grow up with Tina Turner’s music and only know a few songs and a bit about her life, mostly her relationship with Ike. But even still, this film really touched me. I don’t know if it’s her recent-ish passing or Angela Bassett’d performance but it did. I also have an appreciation for the fact that it’s based on Tina Turner’s experiences that she shared and through a production she was apart of. Makes it feel less exploitative, hollow, and sensationalized as many biopics do.
