Tonight with Belafonte is an essential document that captures a performer’s spirit at his peak. Surveying the deep and splintering roots of folk music, the television special showcases how Belafonte was able to put America under his spell. Not to be confused with Belafonte’s stint as host of The Tonight Show, the special also features Odetta.
