Tupac Shakur: Thug Angel, the life of the outlaw (2002)
IMDB
Plot:
Much has been written and filmed concerning the tragic and violent death of one of hip-hop's most influential artists, Tupac Shakur. The rapper-actor, who proclaimed himself a "thug," had a visceral urgency and passion in his talent which attracted millions of fans. THUG ANGEL stands out among the numerous documentaries about Tupac because of its inclusion of previously unseen footage including that of Tupac at age 17. The main footage of Tupac is drawn from one interview recorded at the age of 17, and another taped much later as he fires various automatic weapons at an indoor gun range. The difference between the younger and older Tupac is remarkable. Once articulate and wide-eyed with idealism, Tupac became a reflection of life on poverty row, where potatoes were often cooked as a meat substitute, crime was a hobby and drugs were commonplace. Although outspoken, hard working, generous, and sexually insatiable, Tupac also carried himself like a one-man army: afraid of no-one, suspicious of authority, always looking for a reason to fight. The fires that raged inside Tupac jostled for possession of his mind and spirit. The same man whose favourite piece of music was a passage from Les Miserables also smoked weed constantly and collected AK-47s. It comes as no surprise that he even predicted his own untimely death. Directed by the Oscar-nominated Peter Spirer, the film includes long interviews with friends and colleagues including Snoop Doggy Dogg and Suge Knight.
