What’s Love Got to Do with It [VHS] Overviews

Tina Turner, that dynamic diva of pop/soul/R&B from the ’60s to the ’90s, sings like a woman whose life story is every bit as rough and tough as her voice. And What’s Love Got to Do With It, based on her autobiographical account (in I, Tina, written with Kurt Loder) of her years under the iron fist of her abusive husband and musical partner/Svengali Ike, is further proof of what we’ve always known about Tina: She’s what you call a survivor. The movie is sort of the Disney version of Tina Turner’s story–a glossy but thoroughly enjoyable, old-fashioned showbiz biopic with laughs, tears, great music, and outrageous (but faithful) period decor, costumes, makeup, and hairstyles. Our Heroine triumphs not only over the rigorous demands of her career in the music business, but finally manages to bust out of her troubled, violent marriage as well and become her own person. This is a movie that’ll have you shouting at the top of your lungs: “You go, girl!” –Jim Emerson
