SUMMARY:Billy Preston: That’s the Way God Planned It
DESCRIPTION:The Sedona International Film Festival is proud to present the Northern Arizona premiere of “Billy Preston: That’s the Way God Planned It” showing March 20-26 at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres. \nFeaturing never-before-seen archival footage\, studio outtakes\, and rare photos\, “Billy Preston: That’s the Way God Planned It” is an exhilarating documentary about the legendary Grammy-winning musician whose signature sound shaped the work of The Beatles\, The Rolling Stones\, Ray Charles\, Sly Stone\, Aretha Franklin\, and countless others. \nBilly Preston was perhaps the most unsung musical hero of his time. Born in Houston\, Texas\, in 1946\, he arrived in Los Angeles with his family three years later. At just 5 years old\, he was backing gospel legend Mahalia Jackson. By age 10\, he was appearing with Ray Charles on film\, and by age 15\, he was touring with Little Richard in Hamburg\, Germany\, where he met Richard’s opening act — The Beatles. \nHe would later perform and record with the biggest names in music\, including The Beatles\, The Rolling Stones\, Eric Clapton\, Barbra Streisand\, Johnny Cash\, Neil Diamond\, the Red Hot Chili Peppers\, and countless others. \nHe generated his own unforgettable No. 1 hits\, including “Outa-Space\,” “Will It Go Round in Circles\,” “Nothing from Nothing\,” and “You Are So Beautiful” — and his first hit single in 1969\, on The Beatles’ Apple Records\, “That’s The Way God Planned It\,” produced by his lifelong friend\, George Harrison. \nDespite his success\, Billy struggled to reconcile his deep relationship with the Black church with his sexuality\, setting off a lifelong quest to find love and acceptance. \n“Billy Preston: That’s the Way God Planned It” will be shown at the Mary D. Fisher and Alice Gill-Sheldon Theatres March 20-26. Showtimes will be Friday\, March 20 at 6:30 p.m.; Sunday and Wednesday\, March 22 and 25 at 7:00 p.m.; Monday\, March 23 at 3:00 p.m.; Tuesday\, March 24 at 4:00 p.m.; and Thursday\, March 26 at 4:00 and 7:00 p.m. \nTickets are $12\, or $9 for Film Festival members.
