Synopsis

Millions will always love Whitney Houston, and Kevin Macdonald’s documentary about the incandescent but troubled performer allows fans to relive key moments of her life and try to fathom the tragic circumstances that led to her self-destruction. Macdonald was given access by the Whitney Houston estate to some of Whitney’s original studio recordings and a cappella performances, as well as never-before-shared home video content. The recordings alongside insightful original interviews with those who knew her best provide a glimpse into a side of Whitney most never saw.

So many like me Loved Nippy! It was great to see her true story be told, the truth in it's entirety. Money solves some problems but creates even more. She was human like us with a God given voice. The Voice, Whitney we will always love you!

The main reason to see Whitney is the way it explores the baffling conundrums of her life.

Whitney is too funereal to be a party, too sad, strange and dismaying to cheer. Yet, in its grim, guilt-inducing way, the film works, even on the occasions when it’s working against itself.
