The documentary itself is straightforward and takes you on a fantastic journey through the five year period that the show was on the air. It also explains how the show was cancelled. The film does leave one with the question what if Soul! had had a 20-year-run instead of a five. I believe that the Black experience would have turned out quite different. Some artists would not exist. Had poets, artists, musicians, and dancers had the platform, more Black artists would exist and more genres would have opened.

Fairly run of the mill Hallmark Christmas movie made more enjoyable by the presence of Luke MacFarlane (Brothers & Sisters), who elevates everything he touches. A pianist is forced to celebrate the holidays with her family, where she reunites with her ex (a cellist), who is directing a Christmas concert at "the Chateau." Lovely music and excellent inclusion of older actors as various musicians. Patterson and MacFarlane make a good couple, no one is forced to give up their career (gasp), and there's some real and not forced emotion. Worthwhile entry in the 2020 slate.
