Leadbelly (1976)
Imprint Collection #423

Worldwide physical media debut!

Roger E. Mosley (Magnum, P.I.) stars as blues singer Huddie Ledbetter (“Leadbelly”) in this remarkable biopic.

Directed by Gordon Parks (the first African American to direct a major Hollywood movie, The Learning Tree), Leadbelly follows the true story of how a convict on Texas and Louisiana chain gangs used music as a release. Struggle, perseverance, and music take us on a journey through murder, prejudice, pain and relief.

Never before released on disc, Leadbelly makes its physical media debut in this Limited Edition Blu-ray. 

“The movie is one of the best biographies of a musician I’ve ever seen, and one of the most direct.” – Roger Ebert
