SUMMARY:Any Other Way : The Jackie Shane Story - Westmount Public Library
DESCRIPTION:As part of THE NFB IN LIBRARIES annual programming\, the Westmo
 unt Public Library  is presenting the following film to highlight Black H
 istory Month:\n\nAny Other Way : The Jackie Shane Story  |Directors: Mich
 ael Mabbott\, Lucah Rosenberg-Lee | 2024 | 98 min 50\n\n\nA star is reborn
 . With an outsize stage presence that eclipsed R&amp\;B greats like Etta J
 ames and Little Richard\, trans soul singer Jackie Shane was the real deal
 .\n\nIn an era when voices like hers were silenced and marginalized\, Jack
 ie blazed an incandescent trail from her native Nashville to the top of th
 e charts in 1960s Toronto\, where she ruled the nightclub scene. With few 
 recordings of her legendary performances\, this film brings Jackie to life
  in her own words through never-before-heard phone conversations\, dazzlin
 g rotoscope animation and a newly released song\, part of an incredible so
 undtrack that seals Jackie’s place as one of the greatest soul performer
 s of the 20th century.\n\nThe full scope of her extraordinary life and car
 eer is an epic journey\, marked by family secrets\, loss and love. From st
 anding down the mob to telling off Ed Sullivan\, Jackie lived as her most 
 authentic self through talent\, courage and an unbreakable commitment to t
 ruth. But on the eve of her return to the stage\, fate had other plans. In
  Any Other Way\, Jackie finally gets her second act. Or in her own words:
  “Oh\, Honey! When it comes to Jackie\, look out!”\n\nAny Other Way: T
 he Jackie Shane Story | TRAILER\n\n\n_______\n\nFREE SCREENING\nTo have mo
