Description du film [en anglais] : « A tribute to Buffy Sainte-Marie's extraordinary life and career, Madison Thomas's Buffy Sainte-Marie: Carry It On is as captivating and vital as its legendary subject, the first Indigenous person to win an Oscar (in 1983 for Best Original Song 'Up Where We Belong' which she co-wrote and was featured in An Officer and a Gentleman). She was also the first recurring Indigenous guest star on Sesame Street. A self-taught musician with a unique sense of phrasing and skilful songwriting, Sainte-Marie quickly became established in the 1960s folk-music mecca of Greenwich Village. Bob Dylan and fellow Canadians Robbie Robertson and Joni Mitchell counted themselves as fans. Sainte-Marie's first hit, 'Universal Soldier'—a hard-hitting indictment of those who blindly follow orders—became an international smash for her and for other artists like Donovan. Sainte-Marie is more than just a singer. Her integrity and insistence on addressing subjects others shied away from gained her great respect. [...] This well-researched film divulges many lesser-known details of Sainte-Marie's life, and brings together a fine collection of subjects whose love and admiration is palpable—most notably Joni Mitchell, who beams with affection when she talks about her. Buffy Sainte-Marie: Carry It On is a much-needed, inspiring biography of one of our most revered and courageous artists. » -- Steve Gravestock (source) |
