The Carolina Chocolate Drops

The film about the Carolina Chocolate Drops was an informative film that followed the band through creation to their eventual parting of ways.  The film was a personal look into each members lives, but not much detail was given on their lives not pertaining to music.  I thought the film may have been improved by adding more details about the backgrounds of each person before the conference where they all met.  Instead, the film repeated many details, and in my opinion, contained too many details.

However, the film did blend together the history of the the Chocolate Drops seamlessly.  The sequence of events was easy to follow and it was easy to see each person progress as an individual as well as the band's progression as a whole.  It is incredible how talented each individual was, and how motivated they were in their own ways.  Each played numerous instruments, and even picked up a few more instruments over time.
