Little Richard Documentary on HBO Max

I am loving this, watching it in half hour increments to savor the flavor. Richard might have had snarkier lines than Prince, you could sometimes not tell if he was digging in or kidding around.

Was the SHUT UP ALREADY in Housequake a shout to Richard?

its good, though a bit too heavy handed in some of the things its trying to press forward, and doesnt have as panoramic, or textured look at richard how i had hoped. but some of the stuff on where he got his inspiration from was nice to see. the william klein documentary from the 80s (i think) is the best LR doc i have seen.
