The Boston Jewish Film Festival Presents: Sammy Davis, Jr.: I've Gotta Be Me
Throughout his legendary career, Sammy Davis, Jr. strove for the American Dream despite the odds of racial prejudice. When Davis converted to Judaism, he yoked his identity to yet another persecuted minority. Electrifying performance excerpts, never-before-seen photographs, and interviews with renowned performers paint a vivid picture of this extraordinary artist’s life in this award-winning documentary.


November 7 screening, followed by a conversation with director Samuel D. Pollard and preceded by a live performance by Cara Campanelli and Alex Olsen
