Music, Intrigue, and a Legal Crescendo: Navigating Billy Preston's Documentary Discord

The Tangled Tale of Billy Preston's Documentary: A Snapshot of Legal Drama

The exhilarating yet unsettled life of the late musical virtuoso Billy Preston is making headlines again, not for a new release, but for a controversy that has erupted behind the scenes. The unfinished documentary about Preston, known for his collaboration with The Beatles and a soulful career in his own right, has become the center of a legal dispute that rings out like a discordant note against the backdrop of his melodic legacy. Filed in Los Angeles County Superior Court, the battle sees two staple figures of the music industry in a legal face-off. On one side is Joyce Moore, esteemed manager of her husband, soul singer Sam Moore of the legendary duo Sam & Dave. On the opposing side is Preston's former manager and President of Bill Preston Music, Joyce Biawitz, who claims that Sam and Joyce Moore "egregiously" breached a deal that included a tidy sum of $1.1 million for a 2019 agreement to buy the rights to the documentary. As intricate as one of Preston's keyboard solos, the lawsuit unpacks a narrative rich with accusation, including a purported failure to pay the agreed-upon amount, and the alleged illicit showing of the unfinished documentary to potential buyers at the Cannes Film Market. If the allegations prove correct, it suggests that the Moores took the reins on a deal that had not yet reached its final refrain. Representing an undercurrent of intrigue, this lawsuit spotlights the complex nature of documenting a life as textured as that of Billy Preston. This man, whose fingers danced on keys that graced hits like "Get Back" with The Beatles and "Nothing from Nothing," carries a tune of brilliance and tragedy. Preston's story, from championed sideman to his issues with addiction and his untimely passing in 2006, warrants a depiction that encapsulates the full spectrum of his life's arc. While the legal proceedings trudge along, fans may find themselves caught in a lullaby of anticipation, aching to see the cinematic celebration of a star's journey, stretched now by a legal drama well deserving of its own screen time. The debate will undoubtedly address when the film can emerge from this purgatory of papers and proceedings, so that Billy Preston's life and career can step back into the limelight it so unequivocally deserves. Such is the contemporary beat of the music industry, harmonized with the occasionally heavy-metal clang of the legal system. For Preston enthusiasts and music historians alike, this crescendo of controversy only amplifies the passion and interest surrounding the film and the man at its core. The world awaits a resolution that, when it arrives, will hopefully strike a chord of fairness and celebration worthy of a multi-talented artist whose legacy shouldn't fade to black without the documentary's day in the sun. Eager eyes will remain on proceedings, hoping for an orchestration that allows Billy Preston's story to play out, finally, in its rightful spotlight. Until the final notes of this legal score have been played, Preston's nuanced narrative hangs in the balance like a suspended chord awaiting resolution. Read the full article

Anyways while racism in the writer's room is definitely a thing and does affect how black characters are written and portrayed, to say "well this character wasn't written well (because of racism) so THAT'S why I find them boring!" is just disingenuous and trying to shove blame elsewhere.

Wyll may have been shafted in terms of writing, but he still clearly had more effort and time put into him than Halsin. And yet out of those two characters, which one is more popular in the fandom?

Dragon Age: Inquisition may bend over backwards to make Vivienne seem like a villain at times, and her opinion on the Circles is a bit complex, but that game also has Cullen in it - who was an antagonist for two previous games, and also has even stricter views on mages and the Circles. And out of the two of them, who's the one people are more forgiving to?

Preston Garvey might have a bugged radiant quest that means he says the same thing over and over and over again, but why is it annoying when he does it and endearing when it's characters in other games? (Brynjolf's "Sorry lass, I've got important things to do" comes to mind)

While yes, we should hold writers and developers accountable for the racism they bake into their games, this does not change that fandom is a transformative space. Fandoms will regularly take characters who were underwritten, who were treated poorly by their source material, or who were overlooked, and create beautiful works of art and fiction surrounding them.

So it's quite telling when they refuse to do this with the black characters.
