What'''s Love Got to Do with It (1993) - IMDb

Remember seeing What's Love Got to Do with It in 1993 with my mother in Petaluma, CA.

I had been writing victim/witness assistance programs in every state around then to find out what they would like to see in their public and other types of libraries. I would write these agencies until I got to or near the top of the bureaucracy which was usually the Attorney General's Office for the State.

I did get a lot of useful responses which I copied and then reduced a number of times so that I could get 4 pages of copied and reduced responses and a cover letter so it was not that expensive to get stuff out to many people. I also looped in public health academics. I did share these responses with librarians who were often very unresponsive and/or dismissive.

It was movies like Tina Turner's biography that often pushed me. She had gone through a lot of abuse from her husband as is depicted in the movie.
