Brief Summary Of The Movie 'The Temptations'

The Temptations are an American vocal group known for their success with Motown Records during the 1960s and 1970s. Known for their choreography, distinct harmonies, and flashy wardrobe, the group was highly influential to the evolution of R&B and soul music. Featuring five male vocalists and dancers, the group formed in 1960 in Detroit, Michigan under the name "The Elgins". The original founding members were originally members of two rival Detroit vocal groups: Otis Williams, Elbridge "Al" Bryant, and Melvin Franklin of Otis Williams & the Distants, and Eddie Kendricks and Paul Williams of the Primes. So the movie is base off the these men and it show all the thing that was going on at the time they started the group and all the way up until the early 90’s. From when Eddie and Paul became a part of the group, when Melvin got shoot, and when Paul got shoot. The movie has a lot good parts to it and that’s why I love it. Eddie and Paul were a part of a group call the Primes and that group also had two women and at the time that Melvin meet Eddie and Paul the group were having some ups and downs. Melvin had a sit down with Otis to talk about making them a part of the group. Since they had lost two of their member. Otis really didn’t want them to be a part of their group but he knew that it would be a good look for them. So

Otis walked in and Melvin said are you hear to give me a bubble bath and he didn’t know that it was Otis. They started talking and he tells him that the man look him and the face and asked him did he know him then he shoot him. So… Otis asked him are you sure it wasn’t David. Then they got to talking about the tour they would be going on without
