Afraid Of The Dark (Blu-ray)

Nat King Cole: Afraid of the Dark is the final testimony on the tremulous life of a musical legend and also 'a beacon of hope' in 1950s America, as told to Director Jon Brewer (whose credits include BB King: The Lifeof Rileym and Jimi Hendrix: The Guitar Hero).This searing and candid account of the actual happenings in and around the "fairytale" life of fame and fortune of Nat King Cole, is taken from his private journals made available to the production by his widow just before her death at aged 89. This film reveals the last words of Maria Cole on film as she opens her heart to tell of the man she loved and the life they shared. Also featured from the newly-released archive are Cole family mementos, letters and footage.

Hear for the first time 'Magic Window' and 'What to Do' the (amazing) unreleased tracks sung by Nat King Cole, discovered in the vaults of the Capitol building in Hollywood.

There has been much speculation and regurgitated topical coverage on Nat King Cole but as to the real story, up until now, there has been no access to the most personal records held under lock and key in a New York museum until the passing of Maria Cole.
