When I wrote an obituary for Aretha Franklin a ways back, I said that her acting debut was in 1980's "The Blues Brothers". I should've amended that to read, "feature film debut", because this was 8 years after her actual acting debut.
You see, Aretha guest starred on Room 222 during season 3, her one and only primetime acting gig. As Inez, Aretha blends right in with the ensemble.
Had they filmed in front of a studio audience, said audience would've just exploded when Aretha first appears.
Rating: A.
