ReMastered: The Two Killings of Sam Cooke is a 2019 documentary film about Sam Cooke, the artist and activist, and the circumstances and controversy surrounding his murder.[1][2][3]
Premise[edit]
On December 11, 1964, at the age of 33, Cooke was shot and killed by Bertha Franklin, the manager of the Hacienda Motel in Los Angeles, California. ReMastered: The Two Killings of Sam Cooke explores the mystery behind the murder through interviews with family, friends, journalists and academics as well as archival footage.[4]
Cast[edit]
Though, it is called The Two Killings of Sam Cooke. I guess you could argue for it—but I thought it was a bit much personally. Apart from the very beginning that made me feel a bit odd, the documentary is a great depiction of a legendary human being. Two moments standout in Sam Cooke’s life that one could say changed his Trajectory, one as a musician and the other as a Civil Rights leader. First, Cooke broke from his Gospel roots and the successful group the Soul Stirrers to cross into soul music and appeal to a wider audience. Titre original ReMastered: The Two Killings of Sam Cooke.
