I Am: Celine Dion Synposis, Run Time
Directed by Academy Award nominee Irene Taylor, I Am: Celine Dion sees the 56-year-old Grammy-winning star open up after getting diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome, a rare neurological disorder that causes painful muscle spams and stiffness. It runs one hour and 42 minutes long.
“My voice is the conductor of my life. It’s not hard to do a show, you know. It’s hard to cancel a show. I’m working hard every day, but I have to admit, it’s been a struggle,” the Canadian superstar tearfully reveals in the documentary. “I miss it so much. The people, I miss them. If I can’t run, I’ll walk. If I can’t walk, I’ll crawl. And I won’t stop.”
In her review, THR‘s Lovia Garkye writes, “This introduction makes immediately clear the degree to which Dion’s life has changed with SPS. No longer can the balladeer fiercely belt the tearful lyrics of her heavyweight discography for hours. She can no longer record three songs in a night or put on performances of a lifetime week after week.”
