THE IDOL

May 27th, 2016

THE IDOL- 2016. Synopsis by Netflix. “Directed by acclaimed filmmaker Hany Abu-Assad, this fascinating biopic dramatizes the life story of wedding singer Mohammad Assaf, who surmounted the odds and became the first Palestinian vocalist to win “Arab Idol.”

5/27/16- Mostly good reviews from the critics but weak ones from audiences. TRDB.

10/31/16– This movie was much more than a rags to riches story and I enjoyed it– especially the relationships between the characters. TRDB. Netflix Disc.
