FLORENCE FOSTER JENKINS

A World Of Her Own

A documentary by
Donald Collup




"Donald Collup has created a documentary that finally
tells the unvarnished truth about the phenomenon that was Florence Foster Jenkins.
[It] makes compulsive viewing. Collup is to be heartily congratulated."

JEREMY NICHOLAS
Gramophone Magazine, April 2008


"This thoughtful documentary by former-singer-turned-filmmaker Donald Collup....
endeavors to answer all Florence-related questions, using voiceovers of actual witnesses
and effective readings from memoirs of friends...
wonderful descriptions that conjure up a surreal presence.
Now we can know about the woman behind those amazing quarter tones."

IRA SIFF
Opera News, August 2008

Donald Collup's film scintillates with details."
