Avant's skin color is one aspect of his inspiring story, for sure, but the heart inside "The Black Godfather" - and the ways an honorable soul with personal power can effect meaningful change - spins its own joyful melody.

This is a predictably uncritical portrait, one whose constant stream of praise would be tiresome if these stories weren't so unfamiliar to most viewers.

The anecdotes are gold.

Does yeoman's work introducing a figure that few outsiders have likely heard of, but who needs no introduction in the power corridors of the entertainment industry.

Excellent docu on showbiz legend, lots of cursing.

Imagine Janet Jackson's signature sound without the beats of Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis. Imagine if Soul Train had been buried by a Dick Clark knockoff. Thanks to The Black Godfather- Clarence Avant we don't have to! Kudos to Netflix and Reggie Hudlin
