Interesting ...and sad
I love documentaries, particularly when the subject is still alive and able to talk to the interviewer, to the camera, to us. I knew who Bethann Hardison was but didn't know about her activism in the modeling/fashion world and how groundbreaking it was, and remains. And I am a huge fan of Kadeem Hardison because I was a huge fan of A Different World...but had no idea they were related. And here comes the sad part: the fact that she never told him she was proud of his being one of the leads in a *groundbreaking* TV show; that she seemed pleased and happy about his buying her a car but I never heard the words "thank you" to him during that scene....that she seems cavalier about the fact that she didn't/doesn't seem to know how to love her son, nor to tell the men she knew romantically that she cared for them. She's busy, busy, and surrounded by people, yet she seems lonely because she gives it all to the CAUSE..she gives her time and energy, but not really herself. No wonder her son doesn't feel connected. It made me sad.
