Editorial Review:

Amazon.com:
All hail the queen! Not long after graduating from high school, Queen Latifah shot to stardom with a new attitude toward rap and the strength, presence, and charisma to assure her starring roles in film and on TV. How did she make it? This Intimate Portrait chronicles the young Dana Owens (the name on her birth certificate) growing up in New Jersey in an incredibly loving and supportive family, rapping in a friend's basement, and her meteoric rise to success after Tommy Boy's discovery of her. Interviews with family and friends, old photos, and concert footage give the viewer a royal picture of this beacon of positivity. Whether you're a fan or not, Queen Latifah is a symbol of hope, fortitude, and courage, and her Intimate Portrait gives insight into a remarkable woman. --Rob Lightner

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Loved Every Minute of IT!
I enjoyed the delicate portrayal of Dana Owens in this documentary. It showed her ups and downs as a way to shine brightly on all of her Great Acomplishments. Please note that this film is dated and you won't get all of her recent acomplishments and updates...but you will receive an in depth view of her beginnings and rise to stardom!
