A real disappointment -- go with the A&E Biography instead,
By
This review is from: Sammy Davis Jr. - One Cool Cat (DVD)
This is a listless, plodding, dispassionately-narrated biography of the man who is very likely the greatest all-around entertainer ever. The on-camera commentary is provided not by people who knew Sammy personally, but by a couple of historians and a tap dancer who speak about his artistic achievements and significance from a dry, rather remote perspective. The A&E biography has all the information this one does, and more, and packages it in a much more compelling and comprehensive documentary. This was a great disappointment.

This review is from: Sammy Davis Jr. - One Cool Cat (DVD)
A must have for all those who want to learn how a baby (with God Given )talent honed his gifts by watching others perform while still in diapers. No formal education, he became the world's greatest entertainer - bar none.
Even if you don't like Sammy, you will appreciate his story- what shaped him, the love of a father,show business, how the American dream came true for him- despite racism. This is one you want to buy, share, and keep in your archives. Amazon found a jewel when they found this one. Sammy is 'one cool cat' and so much more. If he had been white - the heights he could have grown, as did Sinatra, but with so much more talent than any of the Rat Pack - would have been phenomenal.

My mother in law is a tap dancer at her senior center. She could not find this dvd any where and was thrilled that I found it for her. She loved it.
