“Sam Cooke was amazing, but this film is full of half truths and speculation.nThey should have shown some respect for the guy- or are they too riding on his coattails???u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI was anticipating a REAL documentary about Sam, instead of gossip and HERESAY.nYou will NOT hear any of his music! Nothing, nada, none!u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThey had a paralegal (who had Sam Cookeu0026#39;s picture tattooed all over his body) touting his so-called expertise in all things legal. The guy is a loon and doesnu0026#39;t seem to have any knowledge of how corporations are structurednHe used an OLD NEWSPAPER CLIPPING to compare with legal documents,–NOT credible source material!nAs far as Sam being listed as u0026quot;employeeu0026quot;, is not unusual, itu0026#39;s structured as such to provide a means for Sam to collect a salary and pay taxes, ect. Wow, that dude had absolutely no comprehension of these types legal matters.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBoyer (the woman he allegedly kidnapped u0026amp; attempted to rape) later sued Cookeu0026#39;s estate and was awarded $30,000.00.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eFranklin, the manager (who shot him) was on the phone with Carr, (the owner of motel) during the attack. Carr was the one who called the police.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eTests from his autopsy proved Sam was inebriated, which explains a lot.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eBoth Boyer and Franklin PASSED Polygraph tests with flying colors.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eIt was mentioned that Sam, because he was successful, would not have gone to a seedy hotel with a prostitute, however it happens time and time again. One example is Hugh Grant – he was arrested for soliciting a prostitute.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThey fail to talk about Samu0026#39;s life (like 3 other children he had out of wedlock).”
