The film was directed by Adam Bhala Lough and produced by Joshua Krause and Quincy Jones III. The Carter documents Carter in the period before and shortly after the release of his studio album, Tha Carter III, which achieved platinum status and critical acclaim, and sold one million copies in one week. After being shown at the Sundance Film Festival, it was subjected to a lawsuit by Carter to block distribution but eventually was released direct to DVD and iTunes where it topped the charts. It has since been banned from legal sale again but is widely bootlegged on the internet. ProductionDuring the filming of The Carter between 2007 and 2008, no interviews were conducted with singer by the filmmakers. As Quincy Jones III told MTV, "With Wayne, he was like, 'I don't want to do anything that's really missionary. I want to give this a whole, new, fresh approach, so I don't necessarily want to do a formal sit-down interview.'"[1] The film was shot in a cinéma vérité style, with the production team following the artist during his tours, and gaining interviews from his manager and other associates.[1] Lough said that the film is about fame and the "artist's life". Carter was filmed using marijuana and a prescription cough syrup in soda as recreational drugs.[2] The director Lough also clearly showed his strong work ethic which has enabled his high productivity, and said that Carter was always recording, whether on the road or not.[4] He is devoted to the process and working all the time.[5] DistributionAlthough Carter was under contract to participate in the film and Jones said he was "ecstatic" about the final cut,[1] he later filed a lawsuit against it to prevent its distribution after the second screening at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.[3] His lawsuit said that he was promised the final cut and wanted certain scenes removed that were still in at the Sundance screening.[2][4] A judge threw out the $50 million lawsuit, and the film was released directly to DVD on November 17, 2009.[4] The independently distributed film topped iTunes movie charts in its first week of release.[5] Critical receptionThe film is among the most critically acclaimed documentaries in music history. Jon Caramanica writing in the New York Times called it one of "the most revealing and provocative hip hop films," of all time, writing "It’s a little like watching Nero fiddle just before Rome begins to burn." [6] Brandon Perkins in the Huffington Post ranked it as "one of the top five greatest hip-hop documentaries of all time."[5] He writes that "it's Lil Wayne's commitment to his art that truly resonates."[7] Writing in The Guardian, Ben Westhoff wrote "it is one of the best music documentaries I’ve ever seen." [8] The Hollywood Reporter, Rolling Stone, and Complex have also included it on their lists of the greatest rock and hip hop films.
