DYNAMITE: THE RISE OF JAMES BROWN comprises rare and previously unseen footage, interviews and photographs, chronicling the musical ascension of"the hardest working man in show business," from his first hit,"Please, Please, Please," in 1956, to his iconic performances at the Apollo Theater, the T.A.M.I.
