PAVAROTTI: The voice. The Man. The drama. The legend.
Stuff James Croot 4/5 Stars “Howard and his team do a great job of mixing the memorable moments (selling out Madison Square Garden in 1984, his late-1980s China tour, THAT 1990 show with Jose Carreras and Placido Domingo) with his early struggles to pay the bills, battle against the bulge and his relationship with a woman 34 years his junior.”

MAIDEN – NZIFF 2019: Official Selection
NZ HERALD 4/5 Stars “The amusement is provided by the game British journalists who completely wrote Maiden off (one called them “tits in a tin”) but were prepared to go on camera and admit they got it wrong. Just a little.”

MAIDEN is the inspirational story of how Tracy Edwards, a 24-year-old cook on charter boats, became the skipper of the first ever all-female crew to enter the Whitbread Round the World Race in 1989. Tracy’s dream was opposed on all sides: her male competitors thought an all-women crew would never make it, the chauvinistic yachting press took bets on her failure, and potential sponsors rejected her, fearing they would die at sea and generate bad publicity.
