Behind the Curtain: Todrick Hall

Respect and love, that is what I felt watching this documentary.

No matter what color or gender, you just 'have to' love him.

I only watched it because it was the last day it was on Netflix but it spinnen my head.

He has way to much energy and ideas to just play a role on Broadway. He should be directing it.

Even if it will never thinkable to physically love him, the world and for sure the USA would be a lot more livable.

I'm always left in complete awe of Todrick and his immense talents when I watch his videos online, see him perform on stage, and I can say the same for this documentary. I'm in AWE! Getting the opportunity to see how much work he put into the music, visual album, and stage production from start to finish was beyond inspiring. Todrick is a force to be reckoned with! It's completely evident he put his entire heart and soul into this project. Katherine Fairfax Wright did an absolutely incredible job documenting every moment with Todrick and his team. I really feel like I got a true sense of life "Behind the Curtain". I highly recommend you check out this film, as well as all of Todrick's content on YouTube!

Such an ambitious project Todrick embarked on. It all looked so chaotic and I would definitely stay out of his way, kinda like the path of a tornado. But when it's Showtime and the red curtains fall, the show glittered brighter than those ruby slippers.

Todrick Hall is one of my favorite YouTubers so I had to see his documentary. It was so entertaining and fun and it showed all the challenge and struggles he faced trying to make his album and when he went on tour. He is such a hard worker and you see that in this documentary. He is so inspiring and he encourages so many people to be themselves and to never let bully's take you down. I love his Straight Outta Oz album and the video he made for it on YouTube. It's so creative and inspiring. I would definitely recommend watching this documentary if you're a fan of his.

One of the reviewers here indicated that Todrick is egotistical and narcissistic for producing his documentary 'Behind the Curtain'. The very thing he sees as a fault is why I admire him. I ran across his 'Greatest Showman' video after watching the movie. I was VERY impressed and felt it portrayed the spirit and passion of the songs superbly. It took me several weeks more to look up this artist. He had just released 'Forbidden' and I fell in love with him as a performer.

Why had I not heard of him before? I know more than I want to know about Cardi B and I've yet to see a full length video of hers. What I do know is that she is making some serious change on what I think is subpar talent (my own opinion). While Todrick is struggling to write and produce his visual album as well as put on a tour on what appears to be mostly on his own dime.

He is wildly talented, and a self-made success of mostly his own means. It sounds like he self-publishes his own content and doesn't have a record company to back him. Why? Why would a obviously talent like Todrick have to do everything himself? Because he is deemed unmarketable by corporate record companies. If they can't put him in certain profitable niches, then they want no parts of him. Other than mostly Broadway interviewers, I have not found any music related publications doing reviews of his music.

He is invisible to a certain degree. He said this over and over again and even wrote about it in 'Dumb'. He's created all of his own content thus far, so why wouldn't he advocate for his own projects? Why wouldn't he want people to know more about him and what he believes in and want to be a part of his music? It's a no brainier. If you can't advocate for yourself nobody will.
